After the death of her estranged mother, textile artist Lillian Hart returns to the crumbling family home in rural Vermont only to inherit the one thing she was warned never to touch: a half-finished quilt. Stained with memory and stitched with silence, the heirloom seems to breathe with a life of its own.
As Lillian begins to restore the quilt, she unravels more than just fabric. Her work awakens long-buried voices, forgotten rituals, and a chilling pattern passed down through generations of women. Each stitch draws her closer to a truth her mother died to protect and further from the identity she believes is her own.
When her brother reappears with buried family secrets, and an elderly neighbor warns of soul-binding traditions, Lillian begins to question if she’s completing a legacy or being woven into it.
Steeped in haunting atmosphere and emotional restraint, Threadbare is a slow-burning psychological tale of inheritance, memory, and the cost of unspoken love.
What if the threads we mend are the ones that bind us and the only way out is to leave something unfinished?
