The Strangers of Norwich Hoyte, Helen.2017. Red Herring Publishing. In the sixteenth century Queen Elizabeth I issued Letters Patent to allow thirty Dutch and Walloon cloth workers to bring their skills to Norwich. The people of Norwich largely welcomed the Strangers as there was sympathy for their plight as religious refugees. C&TA founder Helen Hoyte's most recent book, The Strangers of Norwich is a charmingly illustrated book telling in glorious detail the story of the Strangers and how they revitalised the Norwich textile trade enabling a golden age of prosperity which lasted for 200 years. |

Many Hands Make a Quilt: Short Histories of Radical Quilting Bailey, Jess. Common Threads Press online. 2021. Published by Laura Moseley with the help of a grant from the Costume and Textile Association. This small book surveys ten quilts that have been made by communities for the purposes of enacting social change. All proceeds go towards amplifying feminist, queer, and intersectional histories of art. “When we grant quilts authority, we expand our conception of who can tell meaningful stories and how these stories are preserved. We shift our expectations of history’s protagonists. We discard our attachment to placing individual heroes on pedestals and look instead for history’s collective carers: the artists who showed up to the fight bringing useful resources for the long struggle ahead.” |
