Threads of Life
Author: Clare Hunter
Publisher: Abrams
ISBN: 168335771X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
This globe-spanning history of sewing and embroidery, culture and protest, is “an astonishing feat . . . richly textured and moving” (The Sunday Times, UK). In 1970s Argentina, mothers marched in headscarves embroidered with the names of their “disappeared” children. In Tudor, England, when Mary, Queen of Scots, was under house arrest, her needlework carried her messages to the outside world. From the political propaganda of the Bayeux Tapestry, World War I soldiers coping with PTSD, and the maps sewn by schoolgirls in the New World, to the AIDS quilt, Hmong story clothes, and pink pussyhats, women and men have used the language of sewing to make their voices heard, even in the most desperate of circumstances. Threads of Life is a chronicle of identity, memory, power, and politics told through the stories of needlework. Clare Hunter, master of the craft, threads her own narrative as she takes us over centuries and across continents—from medieval France to contemporary Mexico and the United States, and from a POW camp in Singapore to a family attic in Scotland—to celebrate the universal beauty and power of sewing.

The Threads of Life
Author: Donato DiCristino
Publisher: Donato DiCristino
ISBN: 0557680247
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 70
Book Description
Have you ever felt lost? Have you ever felt confused? Have you ever felt angry? Have you ever felt used? I am sure that you have. Do you think of fate? Do you think of love? Do you dream of a break? Do you wonder what's above? I am sure that you do. I could probably go on listing countless things that we as human beings either think, feel and/or act upon. I call these "things" threads. Each one of us is a spool of thread and with each encounter, journey, burden, etc a piece of our thread unravels. Some of us may have enough thread to last for generations, some only for a short while; but we are all connected. When we're all sewn together we create a beautiful tapestry which encompasses a wide variety of story. The Threads of Life is my story. Take my hand and place yourself inside the story. Take from it all that I have given and know that no matter how dark and difficult things seem, there is always resolution in the end.
