As promised, Winterthur’s Linda Eaton returns, this time to talk about some of her favorite subjects, centered around whether needlework is art, the history of art and the role of women, how needlework fit and didn’t fit in art history, clothing embroidery, and a little bit about the upcoming “Costuming The Crown” exhibition. Linda Eaton is Winterthur’s John L. & Marjorie P. McGraw Director of Collections & Senior Curator of Textiles.–Gary and Christine

Hi Gary,
I am binge listening to the Fiber Talk podcasts whilst working on another goldwork piece. Part historical reproduction and part political statement. Loved the episodes with Linda Eaton, Alison Cole and Trish Burr. Lots of recognition.
Have a nice day, Jessica Grimm
