It is recommended that you have Let’s Sew: A Beginner’s Sewing Guide by Nancy Zieman or another basic sewing book nearby for reference. This project is intended for beginning sewers. Have fun and be safe! Written by Ryan Lindell, Aaron Paquette, Jason Phillips, and Andrew Wirick Materials • Two good-quality kitchen towels, preferably fringed (hemmed ends can be used as well) • Needle and matching thread (doubled thread, buttonhole twist, even dental floss!) • Terry cloth scraps, small bolster pillow form, cotton fiberfill or batting • Sewing pins with colored heads and pin cushion • Sewing machine • Iron • Ironing board Special Notes • Be sure that your towels are preshrunk before you start. Do this by washing the towels. • In order for your project to look its best, be sure to press each line of stitching as it is completed. For instructions on proper pressing, consult your beginner’s sewing guide. • Although any of the fillings mentioned above will work, the pillow will look best by using bolster pillow form.

  • Rice Historical Review Vol
    Rice Historical Review Vol. 5 Spring 2020 PERCEPTION Documenting history is a process of discernment and of memory production. Within the framework of perception, we acknowledge the subjective nature of remembering. Our understanding is changed by our individualized way of looking and seeing, veiled by prexisting experience and identity. The way we see parallels the way light is refracted when it moves through space — water, glass, distance. Using the imagery of light and the way it moves — the way it is distorted — we imagine history and our understanding of it as constantly in motion and based in our own personal conditions.
