Remember The Ladies™

Remember The Ladies™ (RTL) is a series of designs using Kreinik's silk thread. Silk was commonly used in Europe and early America, so many of the designs are samplers or other historically inspired designs. The title refers to a 1776 letter* written by Abigail Adams to her husband, the president, encouraging the young American leadership to "remember the ladies" as they establish a government. 

"I desire you would Remember the Ladies, and be more generous and favourable to them than your ancestors. Do not put such unlimited power into the hands of the Husbands. Remember all Men would be tyrants if they could. If perticuliar care and attention is not paid to the Laidies we are determined to foment a Rebelion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any Laws in which we have no voice, or Representation."
