    The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes is the final set of twelve (out of a total of fifty-six) Sherlock Holmes short stories by Arthur Conan Doyle first published in the Strand Magazine between October 1921 and April 1927.
    The first British edition and the first American edition of the collection were both published in June 1927. However, they had slightly different titles. The title of the British collection was The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes (hyphenated "Case-Book"), whereas the title of the American edition was The Case Book of Sherlock Holmes ("Case Book" as two words). Further confusing the issue of the title, some later publishers released the collection under the title The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes ("Casebook" as a single word).

    🧵 Quilt shop owner and master quilter Betsy Binder is hosting her weekly quilting bee when their most competitive member—a perfectionist quilter known for her flawless stitches—is found dead in the shop's back room, pinned beneath a heavy quilting frame with a poisoned quilting needle clutched in her hand. The police suspect a tragic accident, but Betsy notices the quilt block they were collectively stitching contains a hidden message in the color placement and the victim's thimble holds a microSD card. With her quilting bee shattered by suspicion and the shop's reputation in tatters, Betsy must piece together an investigation as intricate as a double wedding ring pattern. Assisted by her loyal quilting friends and the handsome textile historian documenting their community quilt project, Betsy uncovers a scheme involving stolen antique quilts, forged quilt appraisals, and a lucrative black market for historic textiles. From suspicious batting materials that reveal modern substitutions to stitching patterns that don't match the quilter's known style, every patch tells a story. But when Betsy discovers the victim was blackmailing fellow quilters about their family secrets hidden in signature quilts, she realizes the killer is protecting a legacy more precious than any heirloom. With the annual quilt show approaching and the real culprit still stitching lies, Betsy must baste together the truth before her own quilt gets permanently bound off.
