Book Description
These four pieced quilts by Peggy Waltman bring to mind quiet, restful afternoons tailor-made for naps and generally just taking it easy. But another kind of fantasy these quilts will inspire is that of an uninterrupted afternoon with just you, your rotary cutter, and a large stack of fabrics. The beautifully machine-quilted projects include three wall hangings or throws and a large bed quilt. The Memories lap quilt is a delicious comfort pieced of memorable fabrics. The happy Colorful Thoughts bed quilt demonstrates colorful thinking behind its assembly of bright strips and pale squares. With the sunny Provence quilt, you can imagine a summer day in an Old World kitchen. The Quiet Afternoons quilt is a peaceful gathering of pastel blocks on point. Pieceful Pursuits (Leisure Arts #4133)

Unprotected
Author: Billy Porter
Publisher: Abrams
ISBN: 1683359542
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 323
Book Description
From the incomparable Emmy, Grammy, and Tony Award winner, a powerful and revealing autobiography about race, sexuality, art, and healing—now in paperback It’s easy to be yourself when who and what you are is in vogue. But growing up Black and gay in America has never been easy. Before Billy Porter was slaying red carpets and giving an iconic Emmy-winning performance in the celebrated TV show Pose; before he was the groundbreaking Tony and Grammy Award–winning star of Broadway’s Kinky Boots; and before he was an acclaimed recording artist, actor, playwright, director, and all-around legend, Porter was a young boy in Pittsburgh who was seen as different, who didn’t fit in. At five years old, Porter was sent to therapy to “fix” his effeminacy. He was endlessly bullied at school, sexually abused by his stepfather, and criticized at his church. Porter came of age in a world where simply being himself was a constant struggle. Billy Porter’s Unprotected is the life story of a singular artist and survivor in his own words. It is the story of a boy whose talent and courage opened doors for him, but only a crack. It is the story of a teenager discovering himself, learning his voice and his craft amid deep trauma. And it is the story of a young man whose unbreakable determination led him through countless hard times to where he is now; a proud icon who refuses to back down or hide. Porter is a multitalented, multifaceted treasure at the top of his game, and Unprotected is a resonant, inspirational story of trauma and healing, shot through with his singular voice.

Quilting
Author: Marybeth C. Stalp
Publisher: Berg Publishers
ISBN: 9781845206543
Category : Crafts & Hobbies
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Quilting, once regarded as a traditional craft, has broken through the barriers of history, art and commerce to become a global phenomenon, international multi-billion dollar industry and means of gendered cultural production. In Quilting, sociologist and quilter Marybeth C. Stalp explores how and why women quilt.This close ethnographic study illustrates that women's lives can be transformed in often surprising ways by the activity and art of quilting. Some women who quilt as a leisure pastime are too afraid to admit to being a quilter for fear of ridicule; others boldly identify themselves as quilters and regard it as part of their everyday lives.The place of quilting in women's lives affects core family and personal identity issues such as marriage, childcare, friendship and aging. The book's accessible and intimate portrayal of real quilters' lives provides a fabric for the sociology, anthropology and textile student to understand more about wider issues of cultural production and identity that stem from this very personal pastime.
