A globe-spanning history of sewing, embroidery, and the people who have used a needle and thread to make their voices heard
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, protest, 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 continentsfrom medieval France to contemporary Mexico and the United States, and from a POW camp in Singapore to a family attic in Scotlandto celebrate the age-old, universal, and underexplored beauty and power of sewing. Threads of Life is an evocative and moving book about the need we have to tell our story.

Threads of Steel is the tale of Bettina Dawson, a young girl who, having just attended her mother's funeral, is at the mercy of her work-shy, drunken, shiftless step-father and his cruel, mean-spirited mother.
In 1931 Great Britain was still suffering the impact of the Great Depression and it was a difficult time for a fifteen year old girl and her three younger siblings to be bereft and alone.
Bettina finds help from her aunt and uncle who are a kind, wealthy, well respected couple with no children of their own.
This engaging story takes the reader into the northern countryside, to an iron and steel town, and to quilting with the Durham miners wives. It is rich in detail, reflecting the changes in society over the decades with the tremendous growth of technology and health care.

Описание: It is a mystery story and a detective story about mankind's primordial quest for peace on earth, which first requires that we understand how peace gets destroyed. And like the thrillers on TV that reveal clues slowly, you will see a crescendo of mysteries that I knew were clues, if I could just figure them out Those tough experiences were simply what I had to go through to develop the sensitivity to subliminal signals in nature that I never would have been able to pick up if my life had only been happy and easy. Yet the story is peppered with exhilarating moments of transcendence, love, and naivete. Wonderful experiences dotted this life like pecans in cinnamon rolls.
