Sewing & Survial: Native American Quilts From 1880 - 2022
Author: Theresa Duryea Wong
Sewing & Survival is a thoroughly researched narrative based on original sources, diaries, personal letters, and other notes highlighting Native American voices. While quilting skills were forced on some women, others came to quilting willingly. Equally compelling is the fact that quilting remains popular in Native communities today, and in fact, quilts are the cornerstone of Indigenous give-away traditions. In addition, numerous makers have turned their artistic talent to creating gorgeous contemporary art quilts and powerful story quilts that are coveted by museums and collectors.
Richley illustrated with over 60 quilts, dozens of stunning historical images, and portraits of collectors and artists.
