Thursday Things: Needlecraft
September 17
$12
3:00 pm
Every thing has a history! Sewing. Knitting. Mending. How did making clothing define American women’s lives in the 19th century? What were the basic tools used in a woman’s sewing bag, table, or desk? Join cultural historian Shirley Wajda as she stitches together the history of Needlecraft. We will also take a closer look at Sister Rosetta Cummings’s sewing tools and at selected textiles in the Museum’s collection.
