Welcome back to
Threadville , Pennsylvania , where crafts are king, and a“killer” sewing
machine lives up to its name…
Darlene Coddlefield, the
winner of a national sewing competition, has come to Willow Vanderling’s
embroidery shop, In Stitches, to be presented with a top-of-the-line Chandler
Champion sewing and embroidery machine as her prize. But Darlene’s triumph is
short-lived after she’s found dead under her sewing table, apparently
crushed by the heavy machine.
It soon becomes clear that
this was no freak accident. Who had it in for Darlene Coddlefield? The long
string of suspects includes Darlene’s fire chief husband. So Willow and her
best friend, Haylee, become volunteer firefighters to uncover the truth. But
when a second sewing machine sparks trouble, the friends realize they may have
jumped from the frying pan into the fire…
Determined not to be a garden-variety diva,
Sophie Winston’s neighbor Natasha cultivates a plan to shine on television --
using Sophie’s backyard. As the cast and
crew of the make-over show Tear it Up with Troy bulldoze through her backyard
-- and vacation -- Sophie retreats to her perennial boyfriend Wolf’s to replace
a dead rosebush. But her tender deed
goes awry when she digs up a purse belonging to Wolf’s missing wife.
As speculations sprout, Wolf bolts, and then a
body crops up in a garden. Is Wolf’s
thorny past raising an ugly head? This
is one case the domestic diva can’t let wilt on the vine.

keeping things together. But when a murder interrupts her button
business, she’s always ready to snap into action…
As chairwoman of an international

But when Thad is found dead in a
hotel linen closet, Detective Nevin Riley needs Josie to help him solve
the case. Mr. Wyant’s historic Geronimo button has gone missing, and
considering how many enemies he’s made in the small and peculiar world

history herself...

Wedding bells are
ringing in Fort Connor, Colorado, and the House of Lambspun knitters are
abuzz with excitement. But when a murder interrupts the wedding
planning, Kelly Flynn will have to solve this crime fast to ensure the
killer doesn’t wind up on the guest list…
Kelly Flynn’s knitting pal,
Megan, is about to get hitched, and all the planning is falling into
place. Megan has found the perfect seamstress, Zoe Yeager, to create the
dresses for Kelly and the other bridesmaids. And each bridesmaid is
knitting her own loose-knit shawl to drape over the lovely dresses. But
Zoe has more than bolts of fabric and seam-cutters stashed away in her
shop—she’s harboring a secret. Bruises on her face show a troubling side
of her marriage, and just after she finds the courage to leave her
husband, Zoe’s found dead from a single bullet shot.
Though her husband is a key
suspect, it turns out there are others who might have had designs on
Zoe’s death. One is fellow seamstress Leann O’Hara, who recently
discovered Zoe won a bridal gown design contest with one of Leann’s own
designs. Now it’s up to Kelly and her knitting pals to use their
sleuthing savvy to solve the case, while helping Megan stay cool and
collected as the big day approaches. They’ll have to stitch up all the
loose ends before they can don their dresses and shawls and escort Megan
into the land of happily ever after…
