Here at the Black Threads blog, I've been asking if anyone is creating quilts or fabric artwork about the 2008 US Presidential election. There's a kind of quilt called called Redwork which includes an embroidery technique using deep red thread. You can read about Redwork in the following books:
- Red & White: American Redwork Quilts and Patterns Patterns by Deborah Harding
- Nature's Beauty in Redwork by Debra Feece
- Penny Squares: Embroidery Patterns by Willa Baranowski
