"Zoey's aunt lets Zoey in on a very big secret: She and her fiancé are throwing a surprise wedding! She asks Zoey to make the wedding dress and be a junior bridesmaid. Zoey is so excited about the wedding she could burst--but can't say a word to anyone except her dad and Marcus. At school, Zoey has some new sewing competition: A boy in her new Home Economics unit is sewing circles around her, and is a strong competitor for a class sewing contest....

It is Spirit Week at Zoey Webber's middle school, and she is having a blast coming up with themed outfits for herself and her firends Kate, Priti, and Libby. Everyone is in high spirits ... until one girl is the victim of a Hat Day prank. When Zoey writes about the incident on her Sew Zoey blog, the post gets one nasty comment after another, and another, and another. At first Zoey tries to ignore it, but as the meanness multiplies, she can't help...

Spending her final days of summer vacation enjoying beach trips, concerts, and sewing projects, Zoey works on a surprise for her brother's rock band while struggling with her friends' problems, missing fabric swatches, and a surprise visitor.

Zoey worries that she is closed-minded when she fouls things up trying to help someone who has a crush on her friend and when she tries to bar someone from joining the school's fashion club.

Selling hand-sewn crafts at an indoor market, Zoey confronts a difficult choice when a new crush with a style very unlike her own asks if he can display his paintings in her market booth.
