A Stitch for Time

A Stitch for Time (1987)

In a moving cinema verite style, A Stitch for Time presents the idea that ordinary people can become diplomats working toward the goal of world peace. Interviews with the Boise, Idaho women who made the quilt establish the background for the project and reveal that though some are longtime activists, others have never been politically involved, but all are united by their need to ensure a safe world for their children and society.

A Stitch for Time is a 1987 documentary film directed by Nigel Noble. The film documents the making of the National Peace Quilt.

Background

Following the footsteps of those from the American Civil War and both World Wars, quiltmakers during the Cold War made quilts related to the conflict. Conceived in the early 80s, it began with one quilt expressing solidarity with Soviet women against nuclear proliferation and believed that they were a less abrasive way to encourage peace and piece together alienated societies.
