Box355,Newtown, cr06470,lettersI want to tell you how very pleased I amwith the premier issue ofThreads. . . Onesmall point. On page 24 ("FreestyleEmbroidery") you show a diagram of thecross stitch. Cross stitches should allcross in the same direction. Your pictureshows them alternately crossing left toright down, left to right up. This kind ofcrossing can be used for special effects,but the usual form is for them always tocross the same way . . . ..As you well know, such is not the caseeither historically or presently . . ..years of our time without adequatefinancial rewards.-Sheryl Karas, Santa Cruz, CA-Richard Ha'Ynlow, Montevideo, MN-Janice Fisher, Reading, MA. . . The article I found most interestingwas the one that scrutinized the GeoffreyBeene outfit . . . . Could you possibly takethis concept and make it a regular feature,perhaps choosing garments from otherfashion houses using different fabrics andtypes of garments?-Sharon Buchner, Cincinnati, OH. . . While men were mentioned, and twoof your articles featured the work of men,all of the writing was by women, and allof the illustrations showed women atwork. One might easily have come awaywith the impression that not only do realmen not eat quiche, neither do theyhave anything to do with fiber or fabric... .I'd like to see more about theprofession of being an artisan as well asartists' biographies. I'm also interestedin articles about the fiber arts oftraditional peoples, including interviewswith traditional artists focused on thepersonal meaning, philosophy, orfolklore of their craft, in addition to thetechniques involved. Your magazine isexcellent in presenting the rational side offiber arts, the techniques andprofession, but it needs to have moreheart. It should have at least one articlean issue that includes the human side ofbeing an artist or the meaning behindthe work, the emotional or spiritualthreads that bind us to our art.I do appreciate the magazine treatingfiber arts as serious work, but if our craftsdid not bring us emotional satisfactionor excite us in some philosophical sense,we could not continue to strive againstsociety's disregard for the value of ourwork. Neither could we endure thetedium and frustration of completingprojects involving days, months, or. . .
