Make a statement—and smash the patriarchy, one stitch at a time—with these forty feminist-themed cross-stitching patterns!
 
Crafty activists will love this snarky book with its forty irreverent, vintage-inspired cross-stitch patterns. Whether you want to proudly announce to the world that you're a nasty woman or remind others that a woman's place is in the revolution, you'll find edgy slogans, sharp one-liners, and cheeky images that make fabulous wall art or wonderful handmade gifts. An illustrated basics section will get you started, with information on materials, tools, techniques, and framing your finished pieces.
"[Rohr] truly understands the therapeutic value of reclaiming what was once traditional 'women's work' as a modern, empowering medium. Her designs are spot-on and well executed with clear, encouraging instructions. There are very few people who really 'get' subversive cross-stitch the way Stephanie does." —Julie Jackson, founder of Subversive Cross Stitch
The patterns, 'bold and fierce' indeed, will speak to stitchers who share Rohr's spirit and convictions." —Publishers Weekly
"Standouts here include a folk-art inspired 'Don't Tell Me to Smile' and a sweet, floral pattern that proclaims 'A woman's place is in the Revolution' . . . Feminist Cross-Stitch is very much on-trend as a new generation discovers the joys of needlework." —Booklist
