A wonderful book that goes through the history of how women have used crafting (knitting, sewing, embroidery, quilting, weaving, etc) to ensure their voices were heard. Goes all the way back to the American Revolution to current issues (the 2016 US election & fallout; Black Lives Matters).

A collection of stories that show how a group craft project can help bring a community together, both while making the project, as well as while displaying the finished project.
