Love this new series of Lea Wait's! You can tell from the detail that she researches whatever the theme is as in this case, vintage needlepoint. Each chapter had quotes taken from vintage needlepoint samplers, mostly done by young girls. Old sayings in them make it all the more intriguing. A bit of history inserted that you don't even realize you are learning about vintage embroidery.

It is even more interesting since I live in Maine and the area references are oh so familiar. Some names are the same and some are slightly different but easy to guess the inspiration. Have read book 2 and looking forward to the next.
Great cozy writer. Also enjoy her antique print series.
