Darned If You Do
Darned If You Do | Monica Ferris
4 posts | 4 read
The USA Today bestselling Needlecraft Mysteries have shown that when it comes to murder, Betsy Devonshire, owner of the Crewel World needlework shop, doesn't mess around. But when a local hoarder is murdered, she'll need all her wits to dig a new friend out of a heap of trouble... After a tree falls on Tom Riordan's house, landing him in the hospital, the police discover a mountain of junk piled high in his home. Locals in Excelsior, Minnesota--including Betsy Devonshire and her Crewel World Monday Bunch--offer to help with the cleanup while Tom recuperates. But when Tom is found murdered in his hospital bed, the sole heir to his property--his cousin Valentina--becomes the number one suspect. Betsy believes there's more to the case than meets the eye, but finding clues to the killer's identity in the clutter Tom left behind will be like looking for a needle in a haystack...

I‘m officially done with the Needlecraft Mysteries on audio. There‘s one left, but my library only has it in print. I feel like I‘ve hit the end of an era, all dramatic-like.

I also finished the first corner of this massive sampler (sans backstitching, which I‘ll do at the very end). On to Section II! #audiostitching

DrexEdit That‘s some really beautiful stitching! 😍 3y
wanderinglynn That looks amazing! I hope you post more photos as you work on it. 3y
xicanti @wanderinglynn I definitely will! The next segment‘s part of the border, so it might not look as interesting out of context, but after that I‘ve got a lion to do inside the same kind of box as this Pegasus. 3y

I made a good start on this cross stitched Pegasus and on Monica Ferris‘s penultimate Needlecraft Mystery! I‘m gonna miss this series. It‘s a lot of fun, and reading about people who make stuff makes ME want to make stuff. #audiostitching

Mehso-so

The mystery was ok, but there was too much foreshadowing early on that made the killer not much of a surprise. And there was hardly any crafting in this one. It felt like it was thrown in almost as an afterthought. So not my favorite in the series, but I will probably continue to read the series anyway.
