In this tale spanning two eras, a struggling designer discovers a mysterious quilt with secrets stitched into every seam In 1910 London, a remarkable young seamstress is noticed by Queen Mary and given a position in the royal household.

A century later, Caroline, a struggling designer, discovers a mysterious hand-me-down quilt with a curious verse embroidered into its lining. When Caroline learns that the fabric in the quilt is rare royal wedding silk and begins to dig deeper, she uncovers the extraordinary story of two women whose lives collide with devastating consequences. But that secret pales in comparison to the truth Caroline finally learns about herself.

Re: The Forgotten Seamstress

Dear Dot
Thanks so much for a lovely review. I am so glad you enjoyed the book and particularly your point about the quilt being a main character - that's certainly how I always saw it.
