I am from a German background and I was well schooled in what Hitler had done. My grandparents came to Canada before the war because he could see what was happening. But we had relatives that lived in the east zone and disappeared. I also had baby clothes that were knitted from the cotton string from the parcels at my grandparents used to send back to the relatives to keep them alive during the war. And since they had nothing they would take the cotton string from the parcels and knit the baby clothes from them.
Karen, This was such a fascinating interview! My mother, grandmother and great grandmother lived in Berlin during the war. They came to the U.S. in 1950, when my mother was just 8 years old. I truly believe that hearing the stories from the women who lived through these times, gives you the “details” of how life was during the war. As a young child I recall my great grandmother hand sewing the edges of pieces of fabric taken from an old bedsheet to be repurposed into a pillowcase or even rags for washing the windows and floors. Back then I didn’t understand the concept of being thrifty since everything has become so disposable in post war times. I cannot wait to read Lucy’s book! I also want to Thank You, Karen, for all your great interviews and even more for the fantastic content you share with all of us in your U-Tubes. You help so much to teach us about all there is to know about fabric and quilting!! Your knowledge is shared and presented in an extremely understandable way. I can honestly say that you have helped me learn so much since I’ve started quilting again! I can’t tell you how many, “A Ha” moments I’ve had watching these videos! Even my husband watches now after hearing me chatter about what you’ve taught me and he’s even made me an acrylic version of your 3 in 1 binding tool. Thank You and keep them coming! You are so appreciated!
Typing this with tears in my eyes. Thank you so much for this interview and for introducing me to Lucy. Given the current events, it's so important to educate as many people as possible of the horrors of holocaust.
I grew up with all kinds of WW2 stories as it was still very fresh in my elders minds. Many stories I remember to this day. We were taught how bad the Nazi's were and it could not be allowed to repeat.
Karen, you continue to enhance our lives. Thank you for the Lucy Adington’s interview. I didn’t know about “The Dressmakers of Auschwitz.” Fascinating. Please read “The Seamstress” personal memoir of Sara Tuval Bernstein - another woman sewing for survival in 20:35 a concentration camp. I love audio books as I stitch, & I’ve got L. Adington’s book freshly added to my library. Also, Bersntein’s story is waiting for me. Karen, again, thank you for your presentations to us! Blessings!
17 years ago I wore unrelieved black (even my hair); black for work, maybe with a red top, black at home, my whole wardrobe was black...then my life was turned completely upside down. As I began to put my life back together my wardrobe began to change colour; now I rarely wear black, unless I'm going for an evening out, and not always then; my wardrobe is crammed with brightly coloured batiks and I make household items in bright colours. It's like a whole life restart and the colour is a huge part of that. Fascinating interview, thank you so much - I've just bought the audiobook which I am chuffed to find, is narrated by Lucy.
MY father drilled the history of what the Nazis did and how we can never allow it to be repeated...I thought i knew all about the history of the death camps and such...this is a new 1 on me..this is amazing and so happy she has kept these womens stories alive..
Oh this is so awesome definitely getting the book. My brother in law was in one of the death camps and he escaped. Recaptured and escape a second time. The history of this is just amazing.. who knew that the women were kept alive by the enemy to sew. Just fascinating. Thank you, Karen for sharing this.
My Grandmother made me a quilt like the one on her table, my grandma was from England. She made it all by hand , send to England for the backing and the yarn for the ties. It took her a year , all by hand. Grandma came to the USA in 1908 at the age of 12.my grandma wore a corset, we live in Kansas city and twice a year. My grandma lived in Chanute Kansas twice a year she would come to Kansas City on the train and we had a street downtown called petticoat Lane. There was a store there on petticoat Lane that made hand corsets and she would have them make her two new corsets twice a yearand she would go to Penny makers I think what’s the name of it and have two dresses made. She was very old English.
Thank you for sharing this amazing history. Did you know that the mother of rock star Gene Simmons of KISS was a hairdresser in the camps. Similar story to the women who sewed for their lives. e singer remains silent. Then he continues: "My mother told me why she had survived. When she was a 12-year old girl, she came to a hairdresser and learned how to cut hair. The SS commander's wife needed someone to do her hair. She asked several girls: 'Do you speak German?' The girls raised their hands and said 'Yes'. Whoever raised their hand was sent to the gas chamber. My mother spoke a little German," says Simmons, "but she didn't say so. That was the reason why she was chosen. When she was doing her hair, the commander's wife thought she wouldn't understand anything. But she did." Flora's survival became an important part of his life. Gene became an international star, earning millions. But he also did it for his mother.
It’s two weeks later and I scored a library paper back book on line and it’s such a page turner, it will live in my sewing room library for sure. Thank you for this gift of a book and story. What a gift to the people who are in it and their families in knowing they will not have been thru this in vain. I can’t even begin to think of myself in their shoes. I look forward to finding more of your books. Karen thank you for this interview.
My Grandmother was a Tailoress and recut and made me a suit of worsted fabric from a suit she had previously made for my Great Aunt. It was gorgeous and my favourite apparel to wear. I have lots of used fabrics in my stash including old childhood clothes and pieces of my Grandmother’s dresses from the 1950’s. ❤❤❤
While it is fiction, The Book of Lost Names is one of my very favorite books. It is about a young Jewish woman who joins the French Resistance by making identification papers for Jewish children who were brought over to Switzerland. She and her fellow forger kept track of the old and new names in an old religious book in the village church. It's also a wonderful forbidden love story
Fascinating interview! I have shared the video with my sisters who have read boots about women heroes of war,whose stories are incredible, much like the women in the camp. Looking forward to reading the book
i was so moved by this interview, I immediately got hold of a copy of her book and read it from cover to cover. Thank you so much, Karen and Lucy for this truly inspiring and important piece of history.
This is such an interesting interview. I kept thinking that I would love to be able to have a book of all their fabulous clothing, from the herring girl’s dress to the upper class wedding dress.
Thank you so much for the opportunity to meet Lucy. Her book is one I have been looking forward to reading. Fascinating, enjoyed every minute of the interview. You are awesome Karen and have introduced us to some awesome people many of us would never have known about without your Quilt Circle. Much obliged.
This is probably my favorite interview. Thank you so much. It amazing that sewing and mending that we do and don't think much about. Can have such a sobering and important role in people's lives. It's nothing for us to go and get fabric. But to sew to survive totally changes our view of how good we have it.
Karen, this was such an interesting interview!! I’m very sad that we did not keep any of my grandparents clothes.. even when my father passed, it was before I started quilting and I’ve regretted giving everything away.
This is a wonderful interview with Lucy Adlington! I will be buying the book for sure. I so enjoy all of your interviews. Lucy lives in a beautiful place. I would love to visit Yorkshire. The series, All Creatures Great and Small is filmed in that area. Kate from The Last Homely House lives in Northumberland where Lucy purchased her tea cozy. Kate has a wonderful UA-cam Channel and a Patreon Channel. I just loved this interview. Thank you so much. ❤😊
Bought the book and read it this last week. What a powerful journey the survivors had. Many, many hard decisions to make, and such a hard road to walk.
Wonderful interview, a friend gave me this book for Christmas. Speaking of fashion and women resistance fighters during WWII, Christian Dior's sister was a resistant fighter, captured, incarcerated & survived.
Fascinating interview with Lucy, Karen. I always loved the history of fashion since we learned about it in high school sewing classes. Would have loved to see more garments too.♥️🇦🇺
Yes, I enjoyed this! I happen to be in the middle of “Dressmakers…” (listening to it on CHIRP while I quilt) so this was timely for me. Thank you both.
Wow Karen. This was an informative, interesting interview. Being an African, i am of the opinion that women are the backbone of my continent. May be, not only my continent? Going to buy a few interesting books.
What an amazing interview. I enjoy all of your content, but like many others I am deeply touched by this story. I will be reading Lucy’s book…how can I not…. Thank you…
Karen, I kind of accidently got here to view this, and I LOVED it! A retired educator who loves all kinds of sewing, embroidering, textiles, quilting, etc., and most of all the history of it, this was fabulous. I will be buying the book and looking up more of Lucy's work. Thanks for giving us this wonderful opportunity!
Oh!, York - chocolate peppermint patties! ❤ Staffordshire ancestors I'm in Ohio, US. LUCY😊 I've so enjoyed your sharing and will find your book! Karen- AGAIN Thank YOU🎉 You light up my life😂
Thank you so much for the introduction to Lucy Adlington. I believe it is my most favorite of my many favorite interviews you have done. I have recommended it to several people.
@@glowilk5377 One of my other favorite sayings is from Pancho Barnes, a female aviator who broke speed records, etc., and she said, "When faced with a choice, choose happy." :)
The stories shared by your guest were amazing. My grandmother was a pattern maker at a shipyard during World War 2 and my mother was one of a very few women operating a crane that moved those parts into place to be welding. It was truly an amazing time for women creatively. Too bad they weren't appreciated then for their efforts.
I remember reading this book and the profound humanity within. It was the first real time I'd connected with the women imprisoned within concentration camps. I'm glad you found Lucy and her work and are sharing with even more people
Lucy is an absolute delight to chat with. Wonderful interview. I will be checking out the website and definitely purchasing her books. I have to say that it would make a great movie. Will be visiting Yorshire on route to music festival in August ( Kate Rusby) and really looking forward to staying in beautiful historical York for a few days . I got very excited when my friend told me they have a quilt museum but I think it may be closed. Loved the delightful Lucy and her amazing stories of fabric and fashion. I also visited Northumberland last year on a road trip to Scotland. It was so beautiful. Stunning coasts with expansive fields and big Skies. Hdden treasure.. A must if you are visiting England Sheila . IRELAND
I love reading micro-history on how women helped change the course of history, this book will be added to my read list. I would like to think the wife of the Auschwitz’s commandant was, in secret, saving as many woman as she could through the sewing workshop.
I can't believe it!!! I'm so interested in a couple of books...she's the author of!!! Oh, Karen, what a wonderful opportunity you give us with this interview...Thank you 🥰
here in australia,mid to late 1940's, a couple were killed in a car accident. The eldest daughter , about 18 became engaged and was married quickly. this enabled the coule to take care of the children (bride's siblings) and keep them all together. Her wedding dress was made from mosquito netting!!! coupons were pooled to 'celebrate ' the wedding. I have seen this dress. The overiding thought is how small people were back then. small in stature as well as size.
Great interview. I also wanted to tell you thank you so very much for your tutorial on how to properly bind a quilt. I just finished the quilt that I want to enter into competition and so the binding had to be perfect. Thanks to your instructions and video, it is.
My sister's neighbor had a number tatoo from a concentration camp. Her job was to remove all the buttons from the clothing of those who were exterminated like bugs. Disgusting when you really think about it. Watch "Who do you think you are" episode about Lisa Kudrow's ancestry. Absolutely heartbreaking.

I couldn't have said it better myself! I totally resonate with everything you said thank you
Triple that!!!
Typing this with tears in my eyes. Thank you so much for this interview and for introducing me to Lucy. Given the current events, it's so important to educate as many people as possible of the horrors of holocaust.
I love her T-shirt!

Thank you Lady for these interesting interviews. They are alway educational in diff ways.
I read the book and I learned so much of how these women survived with sewing. Thank you so much for writing this book.

Her book Dressmaker of Auschwitz is amazing…painful and eye opening. I learned a lot new details about the camps.
here in australia,mid to late 1940's, a couple were killed in a car accident. The eldest daughter , about 18 became engaged and was married quickly. this enabled the coule to take care of the children (bride's siblings) and keep them all together.
