Haraway, 1988; Bränström-Öhman, Livholts, 2007; Sundén, 2008) we explore what happens in the seams between two particular platforms of storytelling: the editorial board and the sewing circle placed in an art gallery. Thus, by using something known and placing it in a different context, in a different space, we challenge the very practice of the editorial board, of journalism. This method of ours, is that of a feminist intervention into established rooms, concepts and practices. The paper consists of two parts: a written document and Texting Textiles, a collaborative patchwork-quilt based on the patchwork seminar hosted at Galleri Krets, in Malmö, August 2009.
