Book Synopsis A Stitch in Time by : Aimee E. Newell
Download or read book A Stitch in Time written by Aimee E. Newell and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2014-03-15 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing from 167 examples of decorative needlework—primarily samplers and quilts from 114 collections across the United States—made by individual women aged forty years and over between 1820 and 1860, this exquisitely illustrated book explores how women experienced social and cultural change in antebellum America. The book is filled with individual examples, stories, and over eighty fine color photographs that illuminate the role that samplers and needlework played in the culture of the time. For example, in October 1852, Amy Fiske (1785–1859) of Sturbridge, Massachusetts, stitched a sampler. But she was not a schoolgirl making a sampler to learn her letters. Instead, as she explained, “The above is what I have taken from my sampler that I wrought when I was nine years old. It was w[rough]t on fine cloth [and] it tattered to pieces. My age at this time is 66 years.” Situated at the intersection of women’s history, material culture study, and the history of aging, this book brings together objects, diaries, letters, portraits, and prescriptive literature to consider how middle-class American women experienced the aging process. Chapters explore the physical and mental effects of “old age” on antebellum women and their needlework, technological developments related to needlework during the antebellum period and the tensions that arose from the increased mechanization of textile production, and how gift needlework functioned among friends and family members. Far from being solely decorative ornaments or functional household textiles, these samplers and quilts served their own ends. They offered aging women a means of coping, of sharing and of expressing themselves. These “threads of time” provide a valuable and revealing source for the lives of mature antebellum women. Publication of this book was made possible in part through generous funding from the Coby Foundation, Ltd and from the Quilters Guild of Dallas, Helena Hibbs Endowment Fund.

This book was released on 2016-09-16 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Woman's Handiwork in Modern Homes It is, in like manner, to the in uence of an accomplished and benevolent woman that the Society of Decorative Art in New York owes its origin. The success of Mrs. Vvheeler's project to establish here a nursery for developing and train ing a taste for artistic handiwork among self-supporting wo men has long been assured, and has been the occasion for like enterprises in various places in other parts of the coun try. Under the wise and vigorous rule characterizing this society from the outset, work has been done which rivals that of the parent school at Kensington. Too much cannot be said for the high standard the society has maintained, or for the unwearying effort to so direct native talent among contributors as to place them in relations at once dignified and remunerative with the buying public. With a strong hold on the interest of controlling spirits in a liberal com munity, with aid freely given by artists and by the members of many active committees, with thorough training in the various departments by the best available experts - notably the classes in needlework under charge of Mrs. Pode - the Society of Decorative Art well deserves the honorable emi nence it has attained.

Book Synopsis Crewel Intentions by : Hazel Blomkamp
Download or read book Crewel Intentions written by Hazel Blomkamp and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Keeping to a theme started in Crewel Twists, this book continues the concept of using non-traditional techniques and materials in crewel or Jacobean embroidery. It showcases four large projects, each with an accompanying small project similar in technique, and shows needle workers how to be creative with threads, alternative stitches and beads. Traditional techniques are explained but are extended with the use of bead embroidery, needle lace techniques, and stitches not normally used in crewel work. Many new needle lace and bead embroidery techniques are incorporated, and the book also explores weaving techniques used to create textures like twill and lace weaves, as well as patterns similar to tartan and houndstooth check. Every project is clearly explained with step-by-step instructions and lots of photographs, and the completed embroideries are once again displayed in ways that are both decorative and functional in the home. Templates of the original designs complete this magnificent source for creative embroidery.
