"The powerful ideological construct of needlework as ‘woman’s work’ and all that term has come to mean and the pejorative baggage it carries, obscures the richness of this practice as a potential rhetorical tool."
Maureen Daly Goggin, “An Essamplaire Essai on the Rhetoricity of Needlework Sampler-Making: A Contribution to Theorizing and Historicizing Rhetorical Praxis.” Rhetoric Review 21.4 (2002), 312.
