It is 1911, and Jean is about to join the mass strike at the Singer factory. For her, nothing will be the same again.

Decades later, Connie sews coded moments of her life into a notebook, as her mother did before her. More than 100 years after his grandmother's sewing machine was made, Fred unpicks the secrets of four generations, one stitch at a time.

...and the story never really gains momentum. There are lengthy descriptions of everyday tasks (not just related ro sewing, which might have been interesting, but also e.g. a description of how one character deals with a broken router...at one point a shopping list is read out - the list has no consequence for the plot) and when the different, rather unspectacular storylines do come together in the end, it seems awfully constructed.
I did kind of grow to like the speakers, but I would not listen/read this again.

Too many different strings..
