Bound: A Memoir of Making and Remaking with Maddie Balllard at Mr B’s Emporium
October 10 – 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
£6
Author Maddie Ballard discusses her non-fiction debut Bound: A Memoir of Making and Remaking, an illustrated diary exploring all the practical comfort and pleasure of sewing in a time of uncertainty celebrating the value of craft in a digital age.
In a new home, relationships shift, and ties fray in this collection of essays about sewing and knowing who you are. Each chapter charts the crafting of a different garment. From a lining embroidered with the Cantonese names of her female ancestors to a dressing gown holding the body of a beloved friend, Maddie Ballard navigates love, personal connections, and self-care, drafting her own patterns for ways of living.
