🧵 Notions shop owner and sewing supply expert Zippy Martin is preparing for the annual Craft Expo when the expo's main organizer—a ruthless sewing machine magnate—is found dead in her store, strangled with a measuring tape from her own notions wall. The police suspect a robbery gone wrong, but Zippy notices the tape measure has been deliberately altered and the victim's expo notes contain coded messages about supply chain manipulation. With her notions shop temporarily closed and the crafting community in stitches, Zippy must pin down the truth before her business unravels completely. Assisted by her sewing circle and the handsome industrial designer analyzing the compromised tools, Zippy uncovers a scheme involving counterfeit sewing notions, stolen fastener patents, and a plot to monopolize the craft supply market. From suspicious thread spools with inconsistent yardage to zipper teeth that don't match manufacturer specifications, every notion tells a story. But when Zippy discovers the victim was systematically driving small notions shops out of business to create a crafting monopoly, she realizes the killer is protecting local businesses from a corporate takeover. With the craft expo days away and the real culprit still snapping up secrets, Zippy must measure up as a sleuth before her own shop gets permanently buttoned up.
