]]>I was mildly exasperated when she was disdainful of the struggle for women’s rights and the vote, saying that the vote did nothing for her, as her favored presidential candidate lost. Well, of COURSE if your candidate didn’t win, there is no reason for ANY woman to have had the vote (slight sarcasm). And while she decries the violence of their methods (I wish they hadn’t had to go to that extreme, either), the fact is, when they politely asked for the vote, they were equally politely ignored.
I did grieve that the antiques she wears will not be around for future generations to love, even as I concede she has a right to wear them. I am able to own the wonderful antique garments I do because someone before me made the decision NOT to wear them, but to preserve them.
Sarah definitely has a gift for writing, I acknowledge fully. She is incredibly brilliant at capturing and keeping the reader’s attention to the very end. I was completely absorbed in her writing, even when I was cringing. I imagine (hope) that her intolerance of those not as accurate as she feels she is, will fade to acceptance as she matures. I started out in polyester, too, but gentle encouragement from those more educated made me want to be better, and so I learned and sewed and became better and more accurate. If I’d encountered someone disparaging early on, I might well have given up in embarrassment. And what a world of beauty I might have missed out on if I had!
]]>Her writing style can be a little off putting at times, but all in all I really liked this book. She is inspiring, has done her homework and is walking the walk.
