The parents say, "My child is perfect, so it must be the teachers' fault that he's failing!" The administrators say, "These tests are perfect, so it must be the teachers' fault if the students are not performing well." The elected officials say, "The state is in a dire financial crisis...it must be the greedy teachers' fault...they're bleeding us dry!" I say, "ENOUGH ALREADY!"

For Nancy, Gold Street in Albuquerque is a dream come true: a downtown main street where she can open her own store. Her comfortable, yet predictable, life back in a small Midwestern university town was never like this. But did she pick somewhere too different to open a new business? Nancy quickly depletes her inheritance while setting up her quilt shop, she and her new best friend are torn apart over a man, the other store owners are beyond quirky, and there's disturbing talk about magic on Gold Street. Plus, the locals have the worst habit of polluting their food with spicy green chile. Did Nancy make a mistake? When the husband of one of her sewing students unexpectedly dies in an accident, can Nancy learn to trust the magic enough to bring everyone together to piece together a special quilt?
