Stitches in Time by Michaels, Barbara

Continuing the story of the characters introduced in "Ammie Come Home" and "Shattered Silk," ever-popular author Michaels follows Rachel, a graduate student studying women's crafts--weaving, spinning, quilting, embroidery--and the superstitions connected with them. Linking all important rites of passage to the garments created as markers of these occasions leads Rachel to her theory: in societies in which magic was practiced, the garment was meant to protect its wearer. She gains evidence that her theory is valid when an evil antique bridal quilt enters her life.

--Good stuff. Takes place in Leesburg Virginia!!
