Plot
Hayflower is about to start school, but instead of enjoying her last days of childhood, she becomes preoccupied with organizing her family's chaotic life. Quiltshoe, her mischievous younger sister, is unhappy with their routine meals and runs away to the neighbors, the Alibullen sisters, to enjoy their lavish feasts. Concerned, Hayflower follows her. The family's dynamics come to a head when Quiltshoe's antics escalate. Hayflower prays for help but eventually learns she must take matters into her own hands, adopting some of Quiltshoe's rebellious ways.
