    Stitching Freedom - Embroidery and Incarceration

    Common Threads Press 2024 ISBN 9781916323476 Acqn 34175


    Pb 15x21cm 68pp col ills £10

    For centuries, people have stitched in good times and in bad, finding strength in the needle
    moving in and out of fabric. Stitching Freedom explores the embroidery made in prisons and
    mental health hospitals - those who have embroidered to distract, to reflect or to calm. From
    Mary, Queen of Scots to Lorina Bulwer, embroidery historian and curator Isabella Rosner unpicks
    twelve embroidered histories to discover what can be created when freedom is out of reach.

    Isabella Rosner is Curator of the Royal School of Needlework, Research Associate at Witney
    Antiques and host of the Sew What? podcast.
