Reviews
It's not all murder, she said, and it's certainly one of the most unusual amalgamations between two covers. Editor and writer Bruce has concocted a real whodunit how-to by assembling 15 award-winning, homicide-oriented authors, asking them to incorporate a craft whimsy somewhere in the plot, including an actual pattern and brief history, then compiling. Gillian Roberts' "Ellie's Chair" introduces readers to double trouble: flea markets and painted wood furniture. Weaver Parnell Hall gives Coach Crandall his just and deadly rewards, and subsequently explains the intricacies of this woven necklace. Stories, though anthology---size, do make for some great reading and guessing, but many of the 15 crafts are often treated without much attention to instructions and details--and are sans illustrations or photographs. Appended are lists of museums and artisan centers, shows and festivals, publications, guilds and organizations, craft supplies, and instructions. Barbara Jacobs
