Come As You Are

It’s tempting to identify ourselves by our job title, financial status, personal circumstances, physical fitness or affiliations. Where does that leave us when our marriage implodes, we lose our job or face a serious health diagnosis?

The Threads of Life

Threads have a long history of telling personal stories.

Political and personal statements were stitched into the folds of a skirt or drapes. Threads stated one’s lineage and wealth.
