On with the hobby/craft themes found in cozy mystery series! This entry is about authors who feature dolls, teddy bears, and miniature dollhouses in their cozy mystery series.
Deb Baker writes two cozy mystery series. One of them (the Yooper Mystery Series) features an older sleuth. Her other series is the Dolls to Die For Mystery Series about an aunt and niece duo who not only collect dolls, but who also solve crimes.
Camille Minichino (aka Margaret Grace) writes the Periodic Table Mystery Series which features Gloria Lamerino, an over-fifty physicist. As Margaret Grace, she pens the Miniature Mystery Series, which features a retired English teacher who makes dollhouse miniatures AND happens to be a very accomplished sleuth.
John J. Lamb used to be a California policeman who now writes the Bear Collectors Mystery Series, in which he is able to combine his past police work with the bear collecting hobby he shares with his wife.
Meg Macy (aka 1/2 of D.E. Ireland) writes the Teddy Bear Mystery Series which stars Sasha Silverman, the manager of a teddy bear shop and factory.

It is always such a nice surprise to hear from authors of Cozy Mysteries. With both of your popular cozy series (the Miniature Mystery and the Periodic Table Series), how could you not be a part of the site?!?
Thank you!
Camille Minichino says
As I always say — Nothing says “cozy” like the periodic table!

Ruth says
Do the Margaret Grace Miniature cozy mysteries have anything at the back of the book like places to go to find miniatures, how to set a scale for your miniatures, a page of showing a room etc.?
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Ruth, Camille Minichino (aka Margaret Grace) is an avid miniaturist and includes helpful ideas/tips in her Miniature mysteries. However, I don’t think she has pages showing rooms.
Marilyn J says
Thanks so much for cozy mysteries by theme. I was able to find the series that I couldn’t remember. I also saw lots of authors and titles that I will check out.
