Helpful Score: 2

I was absolutely captivated by this lovely post WWII story about the embroiderers of Princess Elizabeth's wedding gown. The story unfolds in alternating chapters of Ann Hughes and Miriam Dassin, embroiderers in 1947, and Heather MacKenzie in 2016 who is given her deceased grandmother's embroidery matching the embroidered designs on Princess Elizabeth's gown. The two time periods are well developed and it is easy to know which one you are reading. For the British Royal wedding fans, this fictional book allows you to feel as though you are attending the wedding as well as participating behind the scenes. I highly recommend this and found it a joy and a true pleasure to read.
