This is an excellent book on the most important textile project of our times. The texts are engaging and interesting, and the pictures are lovely. The overall layout is gorgeous. A real treasure on my bookshelves!
Thank you Jessica 🙏
An incredible accounting of a heartfelt and deeply impactful endeavor. I was captivated by the brilliance and evolution of the project, as well as the bridges being built by making space for women to come together and tell their stories. The journey is wonderful to witness and the power of what Kirstie and all who joined her have created will stay with me forever.
This book is a wonderful testimony to an amazing accomplishment. The creation of the red dress and how Kristi’s integrity and commitment to what it stands for is beautifully documented in this book. It affirms her commitment to women ( mostly) artisans all over the world and the power that they have in their extraordinary stitching and bonding through the red dress itself. I found it hopeful, touching and beautiful
It was so hard to capture the amazing journey of The Red Dress between the covers of the book but it is a triumph. The title says so much this is about listening and telling; about capturing the stories and celebrating the contributions
I have followed the red dress project over the last few years. It is an inspirational idea that has been executed with such thought and has led to other community projects. The book does not disappoint. Beautiful photos, informative text, sustainable printing and packaging. Well done Quickthorn for producing such a beautiful book.
