Seams Like History

History EN ↓ 4 episodios

Every episode Lauretta takes a look at one quilt, the person who made it and the world that they lived in. Equal parts social history, material culture and quilt history. You may not think some stitches and fabric have much to say about history, but you'd be wrong.
