When Dana's great-aunt Angie passes away, she's bequeathed an unexpected inheritance-Angie's New England quilt shop, including her upstairs apartment. But as Dana questions whether the lifestyle of a small-town quilt shop owner will fit her, strange things are happening, leading Dana to wonder if the shop might be haunted by her great-aunt's restless spirit. What dark secrets did Angie harbor? Why are her most prized quilts mysteriously missing? And could Angie's time in a psychiatric asylum long ago somehow be connected to the supernatural occurrences Dana experiences? Faced with unearthing her family's hidden history and finding her great-aunt's legacy, Dana embarks on a journey of personal discovery. She is embraced in this quest by a group of local quilters: Edna, Janet, Alice, and Margo. These four women become Dana's allies and friends, offering her a sense of belonging and support as she delves deeper into her great-aunt's past. Through them, she comes to understand the importance of quilting for Aunt Angie and the town. This charming, haunting tale blends mystery, quilting, and the power of family to uncover the essential meaning of being true to yourself and finding the threads that stitch a heritage.
With degrees in history and library science, Ronni Chavez brings a love of research to weaving together her twin passions of writing and quilting. Her debut novel, The Crazy Quilter, is a cozy gothic mystery of missing heirloom quilts, a haunted quilt shop, and the healing power of quilting. Ronni says, "Each quilt has a life of its own in memories, relationships, and the joy it provides. As a writer, I'm endlessly fascinated by uncovering those unique tales that unite us in exploring why we create." In 2007, Road Home Quilting was launched to publish Ronni's quilt patterns. The red and white logo of Road Home Quilting is Medic, the block she designed to honor quilting nurses, in companion with the short story, Aunt Vicki's Quilt. When she isn't reading patterns and planning her future UFOs, Mrs. Chavez enjoys swing jazz, oxford commas, dresden blocks, kantha stitches, and everything pumpkin.
