Synopsis
First in the series of four very different women whose paths cross, changing their lives forever. &“A big-hearted novel filled with wit and wisdom.&” —Susan Wiggs It&’s a long way from Fort Worth, Texas, to New Bern, Connecticut, yet it only takes a day in the charming Yankee town to make Evelyn Dixon realize she&’s found her new home. The abrupt end of her marriage was Evelyn&’s wake-up call to get busy chasing her dream of opening a quilt shop. Finding a storefront is easy enough; starting a new life isn&’t. Little does Evelyn imagine it will bring a trio like Abigail Burgess, her niece Liza, and Margot Matthews through her door . . . Troubled and angry after her mother&’s death, Liza threatens to embarrass her Aunt Abigail all over town unless she joins her for quilting classes. A victim of downsizing, Margot hopes an event at the quilt shop will be a chance to network—and keep from dying of boredom. As they stitch their unique creations, Evelyn, Abigail, Liza, and Margot form a sisterhood they never sought—but one they&’ll be grateful for when the unexpected provides a poignant reminder of the single thread that binds us all . . . &“Bostwick&’s warmly nourishing, emotionally compelling novel is quiet yet powerful.&” —Chicago Tribune &“[A] buoyant novel about the value of friendship among women . . . Bostwick&’s polished style and command of plot make this story of bonding and sisterhood a tantalizing book club contender.&” —Publishers Weekly &“A pleasant story of friendship . . . will remind readers of Debbie Macomber&’s popular The Shop on Blossom Street.&” —Library Journal
