After leaving a decade ago, Angie Curtis has been called back to Harbor Haven by her grandmother, Estelle, who raised her following her troubled mother’s disappearance when she was a child. Her mother has been found, and now the question of her whereabouts has sadly become the mystery of her murder.
The bright spot in Angie’s homecoming is reuniting with Estelle, who has started her own needlepointing business with a group called Mainely Needlepointers. But when a shady business associate of the stitchers dies suddenly under suspicious circumstances, Estelle and Angie become suspects. As Angie starts to weave together clues, she discovers that this new murder may have ties to her own mother’s cold case.

I do embroidery. My grandmother showed me some stitches and then my mom showed me more. I was hooked! My grandmother was also an awesome quilter. Sadly we I never learned to quilt but it is high on my list to learn!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was young my mother taught me to embroider and do cross stitch and I enjoyed this craft greatly. I have a tablecloth and napkins from my grandmother and treasure this. elliotbencan(at)hotmail(dot)com
ReplyDeleteI used to knit but I haven't done it for a long time. I also sewed a lot of doll clothes for my daughter's dolls when she was young. I made a tuxedo for her stuffed Bugs Bunny, it was very cute.

I've always thought needlepoint is so beautiful but don't have the patience to learn how to do it---I guess I'd just rather be reading.
