"To the enthusiastic embroiderer of the present day, it is interesting to trace the history of the art back to its very beginning and discover, if possible, how and why the processes which are our heritage came to be a part of the knowledge of the world. A great deal of its early history is told in that intimate book of reference - the Bible - where we read that God gave 'wisdom of heart' to certain men, 'to practice all kinds of cunning work, of the engraver and the embroiderer in blue and purple and scarlet and fine linen.'." --- from "The Art of Embroidery.".…

"In its various forms lace has held sway for years, and it is not surprising that in these later days when a revival is given to all forms of needlework we should give special attention to the work which has been the inspiration of so many lives. Some one has said there is nothing new but what has once been old, and the caprice of fashion certainly justifies the saying." --- from "The Story of Some Famous Laces.".…

"There are fashions in fancy work, as in most other mutable things with which frail humanity has to deal. Change, which is the order of our being, governs our taste to a great extent. The coming fancy, as near as one can predict, is for some glow of color in decoration. White, which is in perfect taste, has been for some time universally liked for embellishing articles intended for table use, but now many of the most beautiful pieces are embroidered with colored silks which show perfect fidelity to the natural shades of the flowers depicted'." --- from "Work for Nimble Fingers.".…

Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Set in World War II Lowell, Massachusetts, Alice Barton's engrossing first novel portrays time and place as integral to the coming of age of Honey Lee Murphy caught in the complexities of family relationships that are strained by her religious, regional, parental and class identifications. But these identifications by no means overpower the truly magical individuality of Barton's characterizations. Barton manages to compose her characters out of themes derived from a deeply lived experience of Catholicism, the overwhelming emotional involvement of first love, memories of a much loved father who is a casualty of war and the harsh but devoted ways of a grandmother. The mounting suspense crests as Honey Lee works to resolve conflicts that are both inner and outer. Barton's delicate handling of tension is both dramatic and insightful. I was unable to put South Station down.Rosamond Rosenmeier, Lines Out (Alice James Books)I was struck by the importance-the human complexity-of the moment of history Barton chooses to focus on in her first novel, South Station. She has a surefooted fictional sense. Carefully crafted scenes and memorable characters drive the plot to a powerful climax. Fred Marchant, Tipping Point and Full Moon Boat (Greywolf Press)Barton's South Station has a 'read me' plot. She creates characters complex in themselves and deftly handles their complicated relationships. Barton's assured command of setting and the rare pureness of her prose make South Station a delight.
