Paperback. Winner of the 2023 Horowitz Prize by the Bard Graduate CenterWinner of the 2025 James A. Porter and David C. Driskell Award in African American Art History from the Driskell Center at the University of MarylandShortlisted for the 2024 Charles C. Eldredge Prize by the Smithsonian American Art MuseumFinalist for the 2024 Sterling Stuckey Book Prize by the Association for the Study of the Worldwide African DiasporaA meditation on suffering, resilience, creativity, and graceIn 1942 Missouri Pettway, newly suffering the loss of her husband, pieced together a quilt out of his old, worn work clothes. Nearly six decades later her daughter Arlonzia Pettway, approaching eighty at the time and a seasoned quiltmaker herself, readily recalled the cover made by her grieving mother within the small African American farming community of Gee's Bend, Alabama.At once a story of grief, a quilt, and a community, Stitching Love and Loss connects Missouri Pettway's cotton covering to the history of a place, its residents, and the work of mourning. Interpreting varied sources of history and memory, Lisa Gail Collins engages crucial and enduring questions, simultaneously singular and shared: What are the languages, practices, and processes of mourning? How is loss expressed and remembered? What are the roles for creativity in grief? And how might a closely crafted material object, in its conception, construction, use, and memory, serve the work of grieving a loved one? Placing this singular quilt within its historical and cultural context, Collins illuminates the perseverance and creativity of the African American women quilters in this rural Black Belt community.
