A quilt on erasing female scientists from the internet
A stitch of protest became my HTTP 404 quilt after Election Day 2024. I stitched Women In Science letters with a red delete button over W and O on Science Lab School Doodle fabric, inspired by Norway's Fisherman's Wife. Quilt is 36x42 in, cut with a Cricut Maker 3, completed Nov 22 2025. Part of my Processing the Policies series, a quilt about erasing female scientists from the internet and women
Rolly's Take
For the person who feels the sharp pang of history's erasure and weaves protest into everyday creativity. They find solace in stitching together narratives that matter, transforming frustration into art that challenges the silence around female scientists and their legacies. This blog resonates with those who know that crafting can be a powerful act of reclaiming space and voice.
