Sometimes to find your life's true path, you have to stray outside the lines...

Welcome to the Anniversary Edition of Miss Scarlet’s School of Patternless Sewing!

Scarlet Santana breathes life into vintage silhouettes, stitching bold, retro fashion for bodies of every size. Her breakout blog, DaisyForever, an homage to mid-century fashion icon and recluse Daisy de la Flora, just exploded nationwide. Scarlet scores the ultimate golden ticket: An apprenticeship in New York City with Daisy’s superstar nephew, Johnny Tijeras.

The steep tuition pushes Scarlet to transform a gritty Glendale record store into an after-hours sewing studio. Across the cutting tables sit unlikely pupils, including a type-A mother whose family unravels under her iron grip, and an enigmatic seamstress quietly guarding a dark, tangled history.

Stitches give way to secrets and turn strangers into friends. Together the women realize an important truth: There is no single pattern for a good life. Happiness is always a custom fit.

REVIEWS:
"With wit and sass reminiscent of Fannie Flagg, Cano-Murillo manages to extract much mirth from her cast of craftsters, each striving to transcend restrictive patterns in life (as well as dressmaking) and to defeat family expectations that are squelching self-expression."―Kirkus

"Scarlet Santana has abandoned a promising engineering career to follow her passion for sewing. To raise money to attend a prestigious design academy in New York, she works for a local designer, teaches a sewing class, and sells clothes on her web site devoted to Daisy de la Flora, the flamboyant designer who inspired Scarlet's retro look and bubbly approach to life. As Scarlet works herself to exhaustion, the women in her sewing class become their own an unofficial support group. When her big break turns out to be a big bust, Scarlet must consider whether following her dream is worth losing herself. Cano-Murillo lays the quirkiness on thick, but the story amidst the gimmicks has a lot of heart." --Aleksandra Walker, Booklist

"Every word in this hilarious, fun read sparkles. Kathy Cano-Murillo is certainly an author to watch. I woke up in the land of happy reading!"―Debbie Macomber, #1 New York Times bestselling author on WAKING UP IN THE LAND OF GLITTER

"Waking Up in the Land of Glitter is wildly addictive! Funny, sweet, and slyly wicked, it draws you in so deeply that you're not even remotely mad you've spent the night on the couch, reading, and missed all of your shows on Bravo."―Laurie Notaro, New York Times bestselling author on WAKING UP IN THE LAND OF GLITTER
