Like other books by Susan Meller, Remnants of Childhood gathers up everyday objects from people’s lives and brings them into focus on the pages of this book–pieces of cloth designed especially for kids; patterned cotton feed and flour sacks repurposed into dresses; children’s hankies; whimsical baby bibs; muslin storybook books, and much more. The common thread weaving through this book is cotton cloth. The time period is the 1880s through the 1950s. The theme is Americana.
Susan Meller is a textile collector, historian, and author of four textile-related books—with three more in the works. She is the founder and creator of The Design Library, an archive of over five million period designs. Other contributors: Susan Meller & Sarah Gifford, Designers, Susan Homer, Editor, Marty Kelly, Photographer.
