Summary
In America in the early 1800s, young girls are expected to be good at embroidery by taking needlework lessons, Abbie, however would rather be reading books from Papa's book shelf. Learning stitches in a sampler is boring. Her needlework teacher notices it and finds a way to entice her by letting her choose what she thinks is important to express her interest in her embroidery work.
