Description:


A wide-ranging anthology of personal essays from diverse voices about their relationships to the fibre arts. Sometimes, the reliability of a knit stitch, the steady rocking of a quilting needle, the solid structure of a loom, is all you have. During the pandemic, fiber arts newbies discovered and lapsed crafters rediscovered that picking up some sticks and string or a needle and thread was the perfect way to reduce stress, quell anxiety, and foster creativity, an antidote to endless hours of doom-scrolling.

Chances are you or someone close to you is currently in an ecstatic relationship with yarn, thread, or fabric. As we struggle with the pressures, anxieties, and impacts of daily life, fiber arts — knitting, crocheting, embroidery, weaving, beading, sewing, quilting, textiles — can be an antidote, a mirror and a metaphor for so many of life's challenges. Part time machine, part meditation app, the simple act of working with one's hands instantly reduces the overwhelming scope of living to a human scale and the present moment.

In this nonfiction anthology, writers and artists from different backgrounds explore their complex relationships to fiber arts and the intersection of creative practice and identity, technology, climate change, trauma, politics, chronic illness, and disability.

In answer to the mainstream craft space's tendency to centre the perspectives and careers of white women, Sharp Notions showcases Black, Indigenous, South-Asian, Chinese, and queer artists and makers and the cultural traditions of craft in diasporic communities.

Sleek and Classy Suit.
Size: 18 Years, Color: Black
This product is classy! I have a very picky son, and he lets me know how he likes to dress! And he likes this suit. :-) In the suit we got is a sleek black with a shiny lapels, and a matching vest and pants. And as a bonus it comes with a black bow tie and a red bow tie. There is no white shirt with this. The only downside to it that I can think of is that the waistband is not adjustable. I have a teen son that's almost 5'9 and he has a waste of 29 in. These pants are larger than that. We can wear a belt with it of course, but it's nice when they have adjusters on the inside as well. I will say oh that this is a nice thick fabric. It's not super heavyweight fabric, but it's not super light either. It's silky and creamy as a texture, and I'm truly impressed with it! I will be uploading a video and some photos in the next few days, but for now I just want to let you know that you can buy this with confidence. It looks great on!
