The Subversive Stitch

I thought it might be a good time to revisit Rozsika Parker's The Subversive Stitch: Embroidery and the making of the feminine, in light of some of the ideas we've been discussing as a group for our Newlyn show. It also ties in with my own ideas for my MA project. I just picked up a copy from the library on Saturday, and got home to hear the news that Rozsika Parker had died earlier in the month. I'm not sure how that passed me by, but here's a link to an obituary from The Guardian.
