Quilting Lessons : Notes from the Scrap Bag of a Writer and Quilter Paperback / softback
by Janet Catherine Berlo
Paperback / softback
- Information
Description
In the middle of a successful academic career, art historian Janet Catherine Berlo found herself literally at a loss for words.
A severe case of writer’s block forced her to abandon a book manuscript midstream; she found herself quilting instead.
Scorning the logic, planning, and order of scholarship and writing, she immersed herself in freewheeling patterns and vivid colors.
For eighteen months she spent all day, every day, quilting.
This book penetrates to the very heart of women’s lives, focusing on their relationships to family and friends, to work, to daily tasks.
It is a search for meaning at midlife, a search for an integration of career and creativity.
