Description

This book explores the history and significance of cloth across different cultures and time periods. The author travels to various locations, including Papua New Guinea and Guatemala, to learn about traditional fabric-making techniques. She engages with local artisans, visits weavers in Harris, and participates in patchwork lessons in Alabama. Alongside these experiences, she shares her personal story of grief and recovery. The narrative combines travel, history, memoir, and cultural insights to reveal how fabric shapes human experiences and identities.
