A "gently" raised Southern Gal, loses her husband (his fault), loses her idenity (her fault) and struggles to become a real woman in todays' "New South". How she accomplishes not only this, but helps a large group of other woman who have been "displaced by progress" is a wonderful story. There was no sense of self-pity here, just a wonderful sense of a new life on the brink....I recommend this book to (and for) woman everywhere.

Being from Alabama, I was drawn to this book. I'm glad I was. It was a great story about getting your life back on track and helping others do the same.

A story of strong Southern women and their struggle with finding new direction after being laid off, divorced, or let down. I found the growing and changing friendships delightful to watch unfold.

This is a great novel about making your life over after a setback. There isn't a lot of sewing in it, but it's very, very good.
