This is the final book in the Common Threads Triology. Common Threads begins with two family stories, one as slaves from Africa and one fleeing the potato famine in Scotland and how the underground railroad brings them together to form one multi-racial clan. In Common Threads II we follow Liz & Joe Allen to Philadelphia, Mississippi for their dream jobs. Unbeknownst to them, the Klan was active in the area and raising their family brought many challenges. The final book, More Common Threads, brings you to 1970 and follows the Allen family’s saga as the boys mature and deal with sibling rivalry, homosexuality, and racism in Mississippi during this turbulent decade. The success of the family potato farm and golf course in Chatham, Ontario grew from strong family values and the Common Threads of a simple Scottish Tartan and an African Kente robe.

It is the early 1850s when thirteen-year-old Ashani tribe member Berko Yaba is snatched from his home in Ghana, West Africa, and placed on a slave ship bound for Jamaica. A short time later, Berko takes a new name, Jed, and reluctantly begins a new, imprisoned life with his shrewd owner. Meanwhile, in Cupar, Scotland, Johnny McDonald is like most teenage boys in his farming community, focused on raising healthy crops and animals. But when Johnny marries Diana and begins farming his own land, things begin to go wrong. Halfway across the world from each other, Jed and John endure very different challenges. As Jed battles the torture of slavery and falls in love with Mary, another slave, John fights the daily obstacles that accompany a life of farming. But when John encounters a disaster that ruins his crops and Jed discovers the Underground Railroad, fate eventually leads both men and their families to journey to a small community in southern Ontario, where common threads tie them together as they become owners of one of the largest potato farms in Canada. In this historical tale, the years pass and the families grow to include multi-racial twins, as events eventually lead a new generation to Mississippi, where everyone must face the sorrows of prejudice.

Common Threads is a series of hand-embroidered unique canvas books which copy the form and design of dime-store 'composition' books. The books themselves, self-consciously hand-made objects, are a record of coincidental occurrences generally gleaned from reading or mundane events. The use of embroidery thread allows for the production of the text and image with the same mark and material, to make the text, image and substance of the book inseparable.

Seeking a Common Thread is a coming-of-age novel that takes the reader back and forth in time to Vienna of the 1920s and 1930s, where we meet Lusia Spielvogel, to Connecticut in 1972, where we meet Susan, a fifteen year-old-teenager. All her life, Susan had wondered what was inside the trunk that had always stood in the corner of her family's dining room. Susan's father, Samuel, is secretive and never speaks of the relatives he lost in the Holocaust. There has been a break in the strand of family, and Susan feels no connection to those relatives who were lost. Samuel and his immediate family had lived in Vienna and remained there for a year after the Anschluss. He was able to escape to Ireland through the sponsorship of a Righteous Gentile named Florence Hobson. Samuel's Tante Lusia and Onkel Jakob were not as lucky. They had packed away a trunk filled with their possessions in anticipation of a future life in freedom; a future that was never to be. Once the family opens up the trunk to reveal its contents, Susan tries to get to know the mysterious "woman of the trunk" through her possessions. Susan discovers a halfway completed embroidered tablecloth among the items in the trunk. A project started, never to be completed by its original owner. The narrative of Seeking a Common Thread interweaves Lusia's story with Susan's completion of the unfinished tablecloth and how, through the act of embroidery to complete the project, Susan discovers Tante Lusia's story and and in turn discovers herself and a connection to family. The author's father, Samuel, was an eyewitness to the Anschluss and the rise of the Nazis in Austria. The author's grandfather, David Spielvogel, was an inmate in Dachau and Buchenwald concentration camps. The narrative of Seeking a Common thread is based on the objects found inside Lusia's trunk, the author's father's testimony and incorporates letters from his personal collection.
