Meet the Stitch Clique, five stylish girls who share a passion for fashion! When the store Zoey’s Closet opens its doors to offer sewing classes for beginners, Ava, Gracie, Lily, Maya, and Sophia walk in not knowing each other or what to expect. But as they talk about their favorite fashion looks and trade stories about their families, something just clicks. They discover they have a lot in common—in fact, their differences only make each other more interesting!   Everything seems to be going well until a hurricane hits Maya’s old hometown, leaving it in devastation. Determined to help, the girls come up with an idea: they can raise money for the town’s recovery by putting on a charity benefit… plus a fashion show! They just need to contact the vendors, get the word out, design and sew all the clothes… Will the girls be able to pull it off in time?   From bestselling author Tina Wells, The Stitch Clique weaves a heartfelt story told in alternating perspectives about family, first crushes, and new friendships to last forever.

From classic Lower Merion to hip and edgy New York City, Sophia Ito brings out her new style in Book 2 of The Stitch Clique! Ever since her parents’ divorce, Sophia’s life at home with her mom hasn’t been easy. So when her dad moves back to New York, Sophia jumps on the chance to visit—not only can she go to her favorite museums and stores again, but she also misses seeing her dad every day. Everything about being in New York feels so familiar and right. But as much as she loves the city, Sophia can’t help but worry about her mom and wish her friends back home could be with her. Yet when she’s in Lower Merion, all she can think about is getting back to New York with her dad. Will Sophia ever find where she belongs?

In 'Writing Wild', Tina Welling shows how the natural world around her has inspired and enlivened her writing and how it can do the same for anyone else through a three-step process - naming, detailing and interacting - which she calls the spirit walk.

Everything seems to be working out for Gracie.  She’s made an amazing group of besties through the Passion For Fashion class at her mama’s studio, Zoey’s Closet, she’s spending more time than ever with her crush Ali Mansourian, and her peers at school are finally starting to appreciate her signature punk style—she’s even getting a style feature in the school paper! But the very best part? She and the rest of the Passion For Fashion girls are starting a business together.  The business has been something Gracie has been wanting to do for months now, but as the school year progresses, tension builds as Gracie senses that her girlfriends might not be as passionate about the business as she is. Luckily Gracie has Lily, who has slowly become the closest to her of the P4F crew, in her corner. But when Gracie picks Lily as the one friend to bring along with her on a family trip to the Poconos, even more tension is created within the group. Gracie was so excited to have finally found a group of friends who really get her. But will she be able to keep them?
