Sandra Dallas is another great author. she has one that tells about how the quilt went west. very interesting how the woman always made room in their wagons for their quilts. there were some that could not and had to leave them behind.
Tara Randal is a name and series to look into. she writes the Lady in the attic.

When you want to checkout books from a series, how do you know which came first and the order of the remaining books? I sometimes end up reading a third or fourth one then realize I have missed the earlier ones.

Just looked on amazon UK and found this information as well as some of her book
Mary Marks grew up in Los Angeles and the San Francisco Bay Area. She became an award winning quilter after retiring from an administrative job at UCLA. Her first quilting mystery, Forget Me Knot, was a finalist in the 2011 Malice Domestic competition.
"I always heard that the best stories come from writing what you know, so Martha Rose is loosely modeled after me: a divorced, overweight Jewish quilter of a certain age who lives in the San Fernando Valley." The smart but impulsive Martha Rose is aided and abetted by her best friends Lucy and Birdie and a cast of quirky characters.
The author is an unrepentant Hidden Object game player and Sudoku addict. "Solving puzzles, finding patterns, piecing things together--that's what quilters and mystery writers do all the time," says the author.
