Victorian Cloth and Stitch

Evening Talk: Friday 21 Feb
Victorian Cloth and Stitch
with Grace Kempster

Did you know the average Victorian woman’s clothes weighed 14lbs – no wonder they sat down a lot! Men judged the status and income of other men by their …buttons!

And novel writers from Thackeray to George Eliot used a language of cloth and stitch. At a time before sewing machines, every home was stuffed with cloth and girls could make a boys shirt before they were seven – every novel reader knew ‘work’ for women meant sewing, plain or fancy.

Join Grace Kempster for a romp through mid Victorian novels to reveal the codes and secret language of cloth and stitch.

Doors open 7.00pm, talk starts 7.30

Tickets (£5) available from the library or online at greenhill.bookwhen.com
