There are 10 books in the series, that I know of and have read. Crewel World -the first, this is the name of her needlework shop Framed In Lace A stitch in Time Unraveled Sleeve A Murderous Yarn Hanging By A Thread Cut work Crewel Yule Embroidered truths Sins and Needles
In addition to Ruth's comments, each book contains a needlework pattern, usually directly connected to the 'subject needlework in the story. While the later books might refer back to people or incidents of the previous ones (very little of this), it is not really necessary to read them in order. The 'village' residents are carried throughout all the books. I have enjoyed them all. Lorri Graham, Washington, USA I just finished reading "Framed in Lace" by Monica Ferris. There are two ISBNs associated with this book: 0425171493 and 9780425171493. The book was published in 1999 by Berkley Mass Market in the U.S.A. I understand that this book is the second in a series that features needlework. Here's the story line, without giving away too much. When a large boat that was retired and sunk 50 years ago is raised for restoration, a skeleton is discovered below the deck. Nearby is a handkerchief trimmed with a lace-like fabric. The mysterious lace is identified as bobbin lace and investigation begins to find out who made bobbin lace in the area at that time. In helping to solve this crime, the heroine and owner of the local stitchery and needlcraft store learns about bobbin lace. There are many clues to be considered, but could the maker of the bobbin lace be the murderer! The book is a quick and easy read and it is unusual to read about bobbin lace in this context.
