SUMMARY:Needlework Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Needle’s I: Stitching Identity\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\nAnn Plato\, needlework picture (detail)\, Hartford\, Conn.\, ca. 1824. \nMuseum purchase with funds provided by the Henry Francis du Pont Collectors Circle 2018.0029 A\n\n\n\n\nOctober 6–7\, 2022\n\n\nNeedleworkers have always used needle and thread to tell stories of family\, memory\, and tradition as they stitched samplers or clothing. Join Winterthur staff\, visiting scholars\, designers\, and artists for a series of talks\, workshops\, and discussions that will explore the ways stitchers past and present have employed their craft to express a sense of self. Please note: masks are required in Copeland Lecture Hall\, in workshops\, and on tours. \n  \nRegister now. \nRegister for virtual option. \n\n\nSchedule of Events\n\n\nThursday\, October 6 \n\n\nCopeland Lecture Hall \n\n\n8:30 am\nRegistration and coffee\, Visitor Center \n\n\n9:00 am\nWelcome\nLaura Johnson\, Linda Eaton Associate Curator of Textiles\, Winterthur \n\n\n9:15 am\nKeynote Presentation \n\n\nMarla Miller\, Distinguished Professor of History\, University of Massachusetts\, Amherst\, MA \n\n\nFor more than twenty years\, Miller’s scholarship has explored early American women’s work in clothing and textiles\, from the Mantua makers\, tailoresses\, and seamstresses of Hadley and Boston\, Massachusetts\, to the needlework of quiltmaker Hadassah Chapin Ely to Black dressmakers and costumers in the 19th-century Connecticut Valley. In her keynote address\, Miller will connect that scholarship to her longtime practice as a public historian. Her talk will contemplate textiles as vehicles for pastkeeping and consider fibers as channels of communication over generations. \n\n\n10:00 am\nSearching for Africans and Their Needlework in the World History of Embroidery \n\n\nKelli Barnes\, Ph.D. Candidate\, University of Delaware \n\n\nI will be speaking about how my research centering on Black American girls as historical subjects and an analysis of the samplers and girlhood embroideries they created led me to consider the history of their needlework knowledge. They were taught needlework in newly established\, European-inspired\, American schools\, but they undoubtedly also learned needlework from their mother\, father\, and kin within the home. Seamstress\, dressmaker\, mantua maker\, and needleworker were some of the few jobs African American women were tasked to do or could find employment in during the antebellum era\, regardless of whether they attended school. This needlework knowledge learned within the home traveled with many Africans who were stolen from their homelands and brought to the Americas. Therefore\, what is the pre-colonial history of embroidery on the African continent and why is it so difficult to find in scholarship on the subject? How might we locate this knowledge in the creation of needlework in the United States during the antebellum era? \n\n\n10:45 am\nBreak \n\n\n11:15 am\nThe Life of Martha Edlin \n\n\nTricia Wilson Nguyen\, Owner\, Thistle Threads\, Arlington\, MA \n\n\nThe embroideries of Martha Edlin\, housed in the Victoria and Albert Museum\, are cited as a perfect surviving example of the boarding school education of a girl in the second half of the 17th century. The set comprises two samplers\, a stumpwork casket\, beaded jewelry box\, and numerous pincushions and toys kept in the cabinet. As we have come to expect\, they speak silently to an industrious youth and her neat and well-preserved work\, which makes us wonder about who she was\, where she lived\, what the life of a girl given an expensive education was like\, and who cared for these heirlooms after she was gone. In the pursuit of understanding the socioeconomic background of the girls who made these caskets for my research\, a treasure trove of documents regarding Martha’s life have been unearthed. What has resulted is an extraordinarily full picture of her life as an adolescent\, married woman\, and widow through the examination of more than a hundred primary source documents. Martha Edlin Richmond was simultaneously a nobody and a somebody. She lived a typical life of an upper-middle-class woman\, the type who we previously thought of as only leaving behind a set of silent embroideries. But a trail of documents tell a loud and boisterous story of her life as part of the aspirational class of people whose origins outside of London brought them to the city\, working hard to get ahead. She led an amazing life in the center of social\, economic\, political\, and religious events at the end of the Stuart era and left an extraordinary trail of her own words through court cases regarding her and her family’s fortunes and misfortunes. \n\n\n12:00 pm\nStudent Presentations \n\n\nConserving a Needlework by Ann Plato\nKris Cnossen\, WUDPAC\, Class of 2022 \n\n\nNatchez Needlework: The Conservation Treatment of a 19th-Century Painted Silkwork Picture\nAnnabelle Camp\, WUDPAC Class of 2022 \n\n\nThreads of Change: Assessing a Potential Meiji Era Silkwork Painting\nRachael Kane\, WPAMC\, 2022 \n\n\n12:45 pm\nLunch \n\n\n2:15–6:00 pm\nWorkshop and Tour Sessions \n\n\n6:00–7:30 pm\nReception\, Winterthur Visitor Center \n\n\nFriday\, October 7 \n\n\nCopeland Lecture Hall\n8:00 am\nCoffee and conversation \n\n\n8:45 am–12:15 pm\nWorkshop and Tour Sessions \n\n\n12:15–1:30 pm\nLunch \n\n\n1:30 pm\nLiberty and Loyalty: Embroidered Coats of Arms in an Age of Revolution. \n\n\nErica Lome\, Associate Curator\, Historic New England\, Boston\, MA \n\n\nIn 1775\, Mary Jones of Weston\, Massachusetts\, watched her life collapse around her as her family\, all supporters of the British Crown\, fled their homes and had their immense fortune confiscated during the Revolution. Torn between her Loyalist father and Patriot husband\, Mary spent the next several years in search of safety\, and one of her sole surviving possessions was a mostly finished needlework sampler displaying the Jones family coat of arms. Years later\, she returned to Massachusetts and settled in Concord\, where this sampler now resides in the collection of the Concord Museum. Mary Jones was one of many students who attended the Misses Cuming School in Boston (1768-70)\, run by two Concord sisters\, Ame and Elizabeth Cuming\, whose refusal to boycott imported British goods also led to their persecution and eventual exile. Several other embroidered coats of arms are attributed to this school and demonstrate the enduring fashion for heraldic imagery among colonial Americans on both sides of the conflict. \n\n\nUsing this grouping as a starting point\, this presentation surveys new research into the origins\, evolution\, materiality\, and meaning of embroidered coats of arms made in Boston and considers the importance and impermanence of family in an ever-changing Atlantic world. \n\n\n2:15 pm\nDechados y Bordados: The Changing Role of Embroidery in Mexican Female Education \n\n\nDr. Lynne Anderson\, Professor Emeritus\, University of Oregon\, and Director of the Sampler Archive Project\, Eugene\, OR \n\n\nIn Spanish America\, girlhood samplers are known as “dechados\,” a reference to both the embroidered products and the desired spiritual transformation associated with their creation. This lecture introduces the richly embroidered dechados made by girls and young women living in what is now Mexico\, emphasizing changes over time and the impact of social\, religious\, and educational contexts. Discussed and illustrated are motifs and stitches unique to Mexican samplers\, ties to diverse needlework traditions\, and the lessons girls followed when creating their “paragons of virtue.” Highlighted are the stories of a few girls who proudly claimed ownership of their work\, leaving stitched signatures that reveal identity\, geographic location\, and even socioeconomic status. \n\n\n3:00 pm\nBreak \n\n\n3:30 pm\nThe Mend as Mirror \n\n\nKate Sekules\, Author of MEND! A Refashioning Manual and Manifesto\, New York\, NY \n\n\nTextiles were of supreme value—and garment maintenance essential—right up until the current century\, when industrial production metastasized and replacement replaced repair. Ironically\, since it takes time and skill\, mending is now a luxury and has also recently become art form\, activism\, and fashion trend. The practical\, economic\, sociopolitical\, and ethical implications of the current mending revival are complex\, but—as painstaking reconstruction of the invisible millennia-long history of this gendered labor practice shows —not unprecedented. \n\n\n4:15 pm\nStudent Presentations \n\n\nMaterials Analysis of a Late 18th-Century Needlework from Massachusetts \nAwyn Beatrix Rileybird\, WUDPAC\, 2023 \n\n\n“Highly educated and accomplished”: Martha Denny Martin’s Moravian Needlework \nEmily Bach\, WPAMC\, 2022 \n\n\nThe Conservation of Ann Flower’s Needlework \nMargaret O’Neil\, WUDPAC\, 2023 \n\n\n5:00 pm \nBrief Closing Remarks \n\n\nWorkshop and Tours \n\n\nIn Celebration of the Strawberry \nPenelope S. Minner\, Traditional Native Artist\, Seneca Nation of Indians\, Salamanca\, NY \n\n\nIn the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois /Six Nations) culture\, the strawberry is considered a gift from the Creator. We give thanks to the strawberry as it is a symbol of health\, blessings\, and thanksgiving\, with deep roots in our Creation story. For all these reasons\, as well as their beauty\, functionality\, and saleability\, strawberry pin cushions have long been made by Haudenosaunee bead workers. \n\n\nWe will be sewing a beautiful beaded velvet pin cushion in our session. Basic sewing stitches will be taught so that you can complete your own one-of-a-kind pin cushion. All materials will be provided. Bring your favorite pair of scissors and patience! We will be using size 11 beads\, if you need your close-up glasses\, bring those also. \n\n\nSkill level: All \n90 minutes \nFee: $30 \nOffered: October 6\, 2:30 and 4:15 pm\, and October 7\, 9:00 am \n \n\n\nEmbroidery Close Up \nTricia Wilson Nguyen\, Owner\, Thistle Threads\, Arlington\, MA \n\n\nOften embroiderers choose fibers that are complex or techniques that are unexpected and are hard to see when looking at an object in a case or a picture in a book. There is meaning\, effect\, or some interesting story about the embroidery or maker that can be teased from these choices\, if we only knew they were there. During this workshop\, Tricia will project highly magnified images of a selection of embroideries from various public or private collections and lead discussions with the class on what can be seen and what these complex and surprising images mean. A handout will be provided with some images\, techniques\, or additional information to take away as inspiration for your own works. The images will be supplemented by additional visuals or video as needed to elaborate. \n\n\nSkill level: All \n90 minutes \nFee: $45 \nOffered: October 6\, 2:30 and 4:15 pm\, and October 7\, 8:45 and 10:45 am \n\n\n\n\nGregg Pink Blossom \nKatherine Diuguid\, Studio Artist Specializing in Hand Embroidery\, Dressmaking\, and Textiles\, Mooresville\, NC \n\n\nInspired by the floral embroidery on a pair of men’s waistcoats from the Gregg Museum Collection at North Carolina State University\, this floral design blends silk and goldwork techniques including satin stitch\, stem stitch\, spangles\, and various cutwork techniques. The finished product measures 3” x 5”. Images of the reference pieces will be shown during the workshop with the gracious permission of the Gregg Museum. \n\n\nKit includes metallic linen with cotton backing fabric and pre-printed design outline\, silk embroidery threads\, metal embroidery wires\, gilt spangles\, and needles. \n\n\nSkill level: All (hand sewing or embroidery experience is recommended) \nKit: $150 \n3 hours \nOffered: October 6\, 2:30 pm\, and October 7\, 9:00 am \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nU.F.O.

The exhibition is inspired by The Needle’s Eye: Women and Work in the Age of Revolution by Marla Miller. \n\n\nSpeaker Bios \n\n\nLynne Anderson is director of the Sampler Archive Project\, a nationwide collaborative effort to create an online database of information and images of American samplers. She is also founder of the Sampler Consortium\, an international member organization for individuals interested in the study of schoolgirl samplers and related girlhood embroideries. Dr. Anderson has published numerous articles on the role of schoolgirl samplers in female education and is a frequent speaker at national conferences. Her study of Mexican samplers is informed by an ongoing collaboration with Mayela Flores Enriques\, lecturer in Art History and Ph.D. candidate in Critical Gender Studies at the Universidad Iberoamericana in Mexico City. \n\n\nKelli Barnes is a Ph.D. candidate in History and African American Public Humanities Fellow at the University of Delaware. Her research focuses on Black girls and girlhood\, African American history of the 18th and 19th centuries\, and transatlantic history—all through the lens of Black feminist and womanist theories\, material culture\, and visual culture analysis. This research builds on her previous work as an interior designer and historic preservationist and her interest in curatorial and exhibit design work upon graduation. \n\n\nErica Lome is associate curator at Historic New England. She was previously the Peggy N. Gerry Curatorial Associate at the Concord Museum\, a position sponsored by Decorative Arts Trust. She received her M.A. from the Bard Graduate Center and her Ph.D. from the University of Delaware’s American Civilization Program. \n\n\nMarla Miller teaches history\, public history\, material culture\, and museum studies at University of Massachusetts Amherst. Her interest in women’s work before the industrial revolution has led to several award-winning publications\, including The Needle’s Eye: Women and Work in the Age of Revolution (2006)\, and Betsy Ross and the Making of America (2010). Her most recent work\, Entangled Lives: Labor\, Livelihood\, and Landscapes of Change in Rural Massachusetts\, published in 2019\, highlights the limitations and opportunities Anglo-\, African\, and Native American women encountered through their work in the community of Hadley\, Massachusetts. Marla also serves on the board of the New England Quarterly and as a consultant for museums and historic sites. \n\n\nTricia Wilson Nguyen is a teacher\, historian\, entrepreneur\, and engineer. Her interests stretch between the embroidery and technology of the past and present. Dr. Nguyen’s primary field is engineering where she has been part of a small group of scientists and artists who have pioneered the new field of electronic textiles. Her product developments in that field have been seen in Land’s End\, Brookstone\, the fields of World Cup Soccer\, and have been exhibited at the Smithsonian. But in this venue\, Tricia is best known for her knowledge and interpretation of historical needlework through projects such as the Plimoth Jacket. She is owner of Thistle Threads\, a company which researches and designs historically inspired needlework. Her unique twist is viewing the objects through the lens of economic history using her engineering background to understand the clues they hold. \n\n\nKate Sekules is a Ph.D. candidate in Material Culture and Design History at Bard Graduate Center\, New York\, using interdisciplinary approaches to research mending cultures and related fields. She has lectured on the history\, methodologies\, and contexts of dress and textile repair at institutions including Parsons\, NYU\, New School\, FIT\, and Tufts\, runs the mending program at NYC nonprofit Custom Collaborative\, and has taught workshops at RISD Museum\, the Textile Arts Center\, New York\, and the Costume and Textile Association UK\, among many others. She is a board member of the Ethical Fashion Forum\, UK\, and sits on the advisory council of the New Standard Institute\, NYC. She received an M.A in Costume Studies from NYU. Her book MEND! A Refashioning Manual and Manifesto was published by Penguin in fall 2020. \n\n\n$425; $350 Winterthur Members. Save $50 if you register by June 30.

SUMMARY:2021 Winterthur Garden Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The Secret Garden\nFriday\, September 17\, 9:00 am–5:00 pm\n \n\n\n  \n\n\nRegistration is now closed.  \nFrances Hodges Burnett’s 1911 novel The Secret Garden has been a gateway to gardening for generations of readers. Revealing both the magical metamorphosis of hidden spaces and the transformational aspects of nurturing nature\, the novel inspires us to re-examine the latent possibilities of places and people. Join us to explore secret gardens and garden secrets through a series of talks and walks with experts and authors from the fields of horticulture\, landscape architecture\, and horticulture therapy.  \nWinterthur’s Garden Symposium has been approved for LA CES HSW. \n\n\n\nProgram \n\n\n\n\n\nShow All  |  Hide All\n\n\n\n9:00 am     Welcome & Introduction\n\n\n\n☙  \n\nWelcome & Introduction\n\nChris Strand\nBrown Harrington Director of Garden & Estate\, Winterthur Museum\, Garden & Library \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n9:15 am     The Secret History of The Secret Garden\n\n\n\n☙  \n\nThe Secret History of The Secret Garden\n\nMarta McDowell\nAuthor and Teacher of Landscape History and Horticulture at the New York Botanical Garden\n\nExplore the backstory of the classic novel through the life of its author\, Frances Hodgson Burnett. Discover the restorative power of her gardens in Kent\, England; Long Island; and Bermuda\, and their connections to her fictional creation at Misselthwaite Manor\, the book’s setting. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10:00 am     Urban Nature: Human Nature\n\n\n\n☙  \n\nUrban Nature: Human Nature\n\nPeter del Tredici\nSenior Research Scientist emeritus\, Arnold Arboretum\, Harvard University;\nVisiting Lecturer of Applied Ecology and Planning\, MIT\n\nUrban ecosystems are the ultimate manifestation of the dynamic conflict between humans and nature—between our desire for neat\, orderly landscapes and our fear of messy ecological chaos. This presentation focuses on the plants that grow without cultivation in cities and their remarkable ability to flourish in spite of stressful environmental conditions. This spontaneous urban vegetation is as cosmopolitan as the city’s human population and\, quite frankly\, is better adapted to our rapidly-changing climate than the native species that once grew there. Like it or not\, the ecosystems created by these plants have become the new ecological normal\, and it is time we recognize that they are not only making our cities more livable\, but also helping clean up the mess we have made of the planet. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10:45 am     Break \n\n\n\n☙  \n\nBreak\n\n15 minutes./p> \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n11:00 am     The Secret Garden: Landscapes Through a Gardener’s Lens\n\n\n\n☙  \n\nThe Secret Garden: Landscapes Through a Gardener’s Lens\n\nDavid Rubin\nFounding Principal\, David Rubin Land Collective\n\nLandscapes and gardens are highly political constructs\, reflecting the culture and character of the citizenry that create them. Rubin will explore the resonance of creating place and the inherent emotion to be found in gardens as narratives\, as personal constructs\, and as community builders. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n11:45 am     Lunch\n\n\n\n☙  \n\nOptions\n\n#1 Caesar Salad with grilled chicken\, romaine hearts\, ciabatta crouton\, shredded parmesan\n#2 Applewood smoked ham sandwich\, Swiss cheese\, apricot chutney\, greens\, on pretzel roll \n#3: Moroccan chickpea wrap\, roasted beets\, field greens\, lemon parsley\, feta crumbles\n      All lunches include fruit\, kettle chips\, house made cookie\, and bottle of water \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n12:45 pm     Walks & Workshops\n\n\n\n☙  \n\nWalks & Workshops\n\nPre-registration required. All walks begin at the Visitor Center Patio (through the Café)\n\nA – Enchanted Woods\nSuzanne French\, Interpretive Horticulturist\, Winterthur Museum\, Garden & Library\n\nDiscover the magic of a woodland garden created for children under a majestic canopy of oak\, tulip\, and beech trees. Take a walk through Enchanted Woods and learn how its design encourages children of all ages to experience imaginative play\, connect with nature\, and develop a sense of wonder.\n\nB – Introduction to Forest Therapy\nAnisa George\, Association of Nature and Forest Therapy Certified Guide\n\nForest Therapy is a healing practice inspired by the Japanese art of shinrin yoku\, or “forest bathing.” It enables individuals to slow down and cultivate a deeper sense of connection both with nature and with themselves. Enjoy a guided walk during which you will deepen your personal connections to the natural world and explore how mindful time with nature can increase your sense of calm\, resilience\, clarity\, and connection to your true self.\n\nC – The Transitional Garden\nCarol Long\, Garden Curator\, Winterthur Museum\, Garden & Library\n\nGardens are in a constant state of transformation as the elements defining them change seasonally\, yearly\, and sometimes abruptly. Take a walk through three adjacent gardens—Azalea Woods\, Browns Meadow\, and the March Bank—to learn how these spaces were designed and are maintained in accordance with Mother Nature’s influence.\n\nD – Curator-led Tour of Outside In: Nature-inspired Design at Winterthur\nAlexandra Deutsch\, Director of Collections\, and Kim Collison\, Curator of Exhibitions\, Winterthur Museum\, Garden & Library\n\nBeginning in childhood\, Winterthur founder Henry Francis du Pont was a collector\, gathering birds’ eggs\, plants\, and other natural objects from the gardens and woods. In later years\, that same drive to “gather” and create beauty with objects was translated on a grand scale into his remarkable collections of decorative arts. Explore the exhibition Outside In: Nature-inspired Design at Winterthur with its curators and consider the many ways that H. F. du Pont looked to nature for inspiration for his interiors and brought the outside in\, creating an aesthetic that has inspired designers ever since.\n\nE – Uncovering Library Treasures\n\nThe Winterthur Library is a treasure trove of resources pertaining to garden and landscape design in Britain and North America across three centuries. From 18th-century pattern books to 19th-century plant catalogues to 20th-century autochromes of the early Winterthur garden\, librarians\, graduate students\, and visiting scholars will share a few of their favorite selections and discuss the flourishing research they inspire and enrich. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2:15 pm     Horticultural Therapy: Using the Garden’s Secrets to Heal\n\n\n\n☙  \n\nHorticultural Therapy: Using the Garden’s Secrets to Heal\n\nAbby Jaroslow\, HTR\, CH\nThe Alice and Herbert Therapeutic Conservatory at Moss Rehab/Einstein Healthcare\n\nThe relationship between people and plants has been evident since ancient times. In the modern world\, research and clinical observation support the idea that spending time in nature has physiological\, emotional\, and social benefits. Learn how skilled horticultural therapists utilize this knowledge to create treatments for improved health and wellness across a wide spectrum of individual needs. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n3:00 pm     The Power of Plants and People\n\n\n\n☙  \n\nThe Power of Plants and People\n\nSue Wyndham\nDirector of Programs\, Delaware Center for Horticulture\n\nThe Delaware Center for Horticulture’s Branches to Chances Return to Work Program is a re-entry program focused on job readiness and horticultural skills training\, life skills development\, and character-building outcomes. Launched in 2009\, Branches to Chances has evolved into a collaborative\, partnership-based curriculum\, which incorporates mindfulness practice and emotional and mental wellness support to complement the hands-on training experience and classroom curriculum. For some participants\, this is an introduction to public gardens and horticulture and their first time experiencing what Delaware Center for Horticulture promotes as “the power of plants and people.” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n3:45 pm     Break\n\n\n\n☙  \n\nBrea\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n4:00 pm     The Magic of Children’s Gardens: Inspiring Through Creative Design\n\n\n\n☙  \n\nThe Magic of Children’s Gardens: Inspiring Through Creative Design\n\nLolly Tai\nProfessor of Landscape Architecture\, Temple University\n\nAn examination of 19 case studies of public children’s gardens reveals primary goals\, concepts\, and key considerations for designing outdoor spaces that are attractive and suitable for children. Two case studies from the presenter’s recent book illustrate how key design elements are integrated in creating children’s gardens. Through beautiful graphics and photographs\, the audience will gain an understanding of the design process and key considerations for designing inspiring children’s gardens. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFarewell\n\n\n\n☙  \n\nFarewell\n\nHappy Hour and networking option: conference participants are invited to register for Harvest Tasting at a special price for symposium participants. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHarvest Tasting\n\n\n\n☙  \n\nHarvest Tasting\n\n4:00–-7:00 pm\nReflecting Pool\n\nProhibition inspired the du Ponts to create a wine cellar that could last the rest of their lives. A dozen or so closets\, cellars\, and storage areas were packed with wine across the 2\,000-acre estate. After the death of Colonel Henry Algernon du Pont in 1926\, Henry Francis du Pont inherited Winterthur\, where he continued to enjoy the extensive collection of wines from his father\, as well as his own\, into the 1960s.\n\nEnjoy a beautiful evening in the garden as you sip on wines from around the world\, perfectly paired with an apertivo. Each wine—sparkling rosé from France\, sauvignon blanc from New Zealand\, gewurztraminer from Germany\, chenin blanc from South Africa\, sangiovese from Italy\, and cabernet sauvignon from America—will highlight a unique wine region\, including some of H. F. du Pont’s favorites. Wander throughout the Reflecting Pool area as you enjoy live music and relax beneath the early autumn skies. $90; $85 for Winterthur and Delaware Museum of Natural History members; $75 for Garden Symposium participants; $35 per designated driver\n\nOutdoor event.
