The Seamstress's Hard-Won Home

Penny Cho, an embroidery craftswoman, is sold by her husband Rennie Jay to fisherman Kane Holt. She moves into Kane's home with her daughter Tilly, relying on her embroidery craft to grow from street vendor to running her own workshop. She navigates extortion, sabotage, and suppression, winning the Empress Dowager's birthday commission and expanding her shop. Kane Holt always stands by her side, and the two grow to love each other through hardship. Penny becomes the matriarch of the Holt family.
