The Mourning Stitcher

A Thread & Tangle Mystery – Book Four
By M.C. Needleton

Some stitches honor the past. Others were made to bury it.

When Ivy Ridge’s most elusive quilting society—the Mourning Circle—agrees to host a private exhibit at A Stitch in Time, Everly Faye Galloway is thrilled to open her doors to the mysterious legacy group. Known for their elegant blackwork and secretive past, the Circle has long been whispered about… but rarely seen.

Then one of the Circle’s members turns up dead.

What begins as a tribute to the forgotten women of quilting history turns into a tangled mystery filled with whispers of oaths, betrayal, and a 13th member no one will talk about. When Everly uncovers a hidden rule book and a ceremonial oath stitched into one of the exhibit’s pieces, she realizes the Mourning Circle wasn’t formed just to mourn — it was built to remember the women the world tried to erase.

But someone is willing to kill to keep those stories buried.

As secrets surface and another woman is wrongly named—and tragically silenced—Everly must use every ounce of intuition (and her favorite seam ripper) to piece together the truth behind the stitches… before she becomes the next thread cut short.
