We start off with Kathy Augustine's \"Stitching with Paint: Inside\nthe World of Jan Brett.\" Jan Brett writes and illustrates delightful\nbooks for children of all ages; each is permeated with folklore and\nfolk costume and each is mesmerizing.\nMimi Seyferth uncovered fascinating information about beloved\nAmerican author Nathaniel Hawthorne: \"When most people think of\n[Nathaniel Hawthorne] and needlework, their minds turn to his novel\nThe Scarlet Letter (1850) and the intricately embroidered scarlet letter\nA worn by the skilled seamstress Hester Prynne as a symbol of her\nadultery. But it is a little known fact that, while convalescing from a foot\ninjury suffered when he was nine years old, Hawthorne knitted a pair\nof stockings for the cat who then reigned in his family's household.\"\nHow delicious is that?? And there's more-references to knitting are a\nconstant thread in many of Hawthorne's works.\nYou'll also find Arthur Conan Doyle's socks, Margaret Oliphant's Hester:\nA Story of Contemporary Life written in 1883, the role of bobbin lace in\nItalian Carlo Goldoni's eighteenth-century plays, and \"The Hatfield-McCoy\nFeud Reimagined.\" However, we haven't just looked to the past for our\n\"Needlework in Literature\" examples. Two of our contributors drew their\ninspiration from current popular fiction: Diana Gabaldon's Outlander and\nGeorge R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nPlus!
