    Making Their Mark 17 A CELEBRATION OF GREAT WOMEN ARTISTS Susan Mary "Lily" Yeats, in a 1901 portrait by Photograph of Susan Mary "Lily" Yeats (left) and Elizabeth Corbet "Lolly" Yeats (right). Elizabeth Corbet "Lolly" Yeats, in an 1887 Jack Butler Yeats. National Gallery of Ireland. portrait by Jack Butler Yeats. Sisters Susan Mary "Lily" Yeats (1866-1949, above, left) and Elizabeth Corbet "Lolly" Yeats (1868-1940, above, right) were pivotal figures in the advancement of the Arts and Crafts style in Ireland. Founded in England by the British designer William Morris, the Arts and Crafts Movement advocated traditional, handcrafted objects as a rebellion against soulless factory-made furnishings. The Yeats sisters were from a preeminent Irish family--their father John and brother Jack were noted painters, and their other brother was the renowned poet William Butler Yeats. Born in Enniscrone, County Sligo, Ireland, Lily Yeats was a frequent visitor to William Morris when her family moved to London in the 1870s; she would learn embroidery from his daughter, May Morris. Younger sister Lolly Yeats, also in the Morris circle, was more interested in painting and printing; by the end of the century she had written and illustrated four instructional books on sketching directly with a brush. Upon returning to Ireland, both sisters would co-found the Dun Emer Guild, a Arts and Crafts group in Dublin managed and staffed entirely by women, with the textile designer Evelyn Gleeson (1855-1944). Guilds, as opposed to factories, were a return to the Medieval and Renaissance guilds that once served as the primary centers of art production.

  • Winter 2016 Newsletter
    WINTER 2016 NEWSLETTER While this winter hasn't been aggressive as many have in the past, it's still cold! The outdoor animal family have very thick coats and remain toasty, while the indoor fellows enjoy basking on the heated "rug buddies", or lounging before the fire. As for me, I am counting the days until April 28th, the first possible due date for Shetland lambs. Rug buddies I'll be introducing many new samplers over the next few months, and some wonderful antiques for sale that are currently being cleaned and conserved. By popular demand, two samplers have been resurrected, newly charted in a beautiful new format that is very easy to read: Amelia Boyce, and A Scottish Sampler featuring a Red Mansion House (formerly titled "The Red House Sampler" but that title has been used by other designers and I didn't wish to create any confusion). My conversion chart from DMC to AVAS soie d'alger has been removed from my website. Over the years the dye lots have changed so often, sometimes quite dramatically, such that it is impossible to keep up with colors that have changed or are indefinitely on back order. If you know the colors that you need you can order them at my website, and please know that I always adjust the cost of shipping. If you order four skeins and the shipping charge pops up at $6.00, I will change that to $1.00 when processing your order. The best way to order AVAS silk, to achieve the closest color matches, is to give me the DMC number, and I will take it from there.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Textile Society of America Symposium Proceedings by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@University of Nebraska - Lincoln. The Changing Politics of Textiles as Portrayed on Somali Postage Stamps Heather Akou When Somalia became an independent nation in 1960, the change in power was celebrated with new postage stamps. Departing from the royal portraits and vague images of "natives" favored by their colonizers, Somalis chose to circulate detailed images of local plants, animals, artisanal products, and beautiful young women in wrapped fabrics. In the early 1960s, these images were fairly accurate representations of contemporary fashions. Over the next twenty years, with a few notable exceptions, these images became more romanticized focusing on the folk dress worn by nomads in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. Confronting drought, corruption, and economic interference from the West, dictator Siad Barre (who came to power in a military coup in 1969) longed openly for the "good old days" of nomadic life. As the country became increasingly unstable in the 1980s, leading to the collapse of the national government in 1991, postal depictions of textiles and wrapped clothing became even more divorced from reality: surface patterns unrelated to the drape of the cloth, fabrics that were too thin or wrapped in impossible ways, and styles of dress that were nothing but fantasy.

  • 'The Eclectic Collection of Miss M.F.V. Lobb' : Simon Evans (PDF 1.09
    The Eclectic Collection Of Miss M.F.V. Lobb By Simon Evans In 2013, I was working on a Library project to digitise a selection of pre-1910 photograph albums. There were some family albums with shots of trips to the sea, countryside picnics, and many topographical prints, mass produced for the nineteenth century tourist. There was one album, number 279, which caught my attention. Among the 140 or so photographs, there are about 50 round prints, approximately 3.5 inches (8.5 cm) in diameter, which I hadn't seen in any of the other albums, as well as the more familiar formats produced by Kodak in the 1890's. The images were all quite informal, showing some very affluent people. Some were on board a ship, some around the grounds of large country houses, which appeared to be in Denmark. There were also some mass-produced views of, among other places, Egypt. But it was some of the candid shots that really stood out for me. One in particular shows two women standing in a window, almost silhouetted, with the light behind them. They seem to be deep in conversation, one possibly comforting the other for some reason. It seemed to me to be a very observant, intimate image, with a feminine feel to it. As a photographer myself, I knew that shooting into the light like this was a technically challenging situation for the fairly primitive equipment of the time, and not something that many early photographers would attempt. I was keen to find out who the photographer was, and began a journey which would take me in an unexpected direction.
