“Cross-stitch, as with all embroidery, is also bound into a socio-political debate about gender, as it is traditionally considered a pastime for women, particularly from older generations. This gender bias adds to the success of cross-stitch as a political medium; one cannot help but feel kindness toward cross-stitched pieces, as though they had been created by a senior matriarch.”

“This is something I have always struggled with—defining craftivism. I think that making things as an alternative to consumerism, making things as a form of counterculture protest, is valid.”
