Deborah mcguire biography

Take artist, teacher, writer, swimmer, environmentalist and people-person and mix it all together to yield this author, Debbie McGuire. She has found that even though climate change would seem to be of universal concern, she cannot always convince others to share the concern. So, channeling her passion into writing projects could help. Her first book, God’s Good Earth, compares the Earth as God designed it, to our Earth today. Now, a few years later, having a grandson left her to consider what the Earth would be like when he is an adult. News lately reports many extreme weather stories, plus less-hopeful climate predictions. Such news can leave people feeling helpless. To counteract this, Debbie researched and created a practcal guide to show that individual actions can be multiplied by those of others in our communities, our state, our country, etc., for real impact. She lives with her supportive husband of 36 years, and values the encouragement from her son, daughter-in-law and daughter. Debbie thanks you for reading her work, and welcomes your feedback (X @yellowsmile10, Tiktok

Deborah McGuire is an historian, writer, teacher and hand quilter based at London College of Fashion, University of the Arts, London. Her work presents the historical British quilt as an emotional object.

Debs’ ongoing PhD research project concerns itself with journeys through temporal and geographical space, presenting the quilt as a flexible vessel which did emotional work over long periods as it travelled through the spaces and places of the long nineteenth century. Unfolding the focus outwards from the maker, this study explores overlapping arenas; the smaller more intimate sphere of the body, senses and souls of makers, and wider spheres recording how quilts lived on through remembered afterlives, in alternative domesticities, reinforcing regionalities, and doing the work of nationhood. 

Deborah’s thesis, titled ‘Emotional Journeys. The British Quilt in Space and Time 1780-1920’, is supervised by Professor Joanne Begiato Associate Dean of Research, Professor Charlotte Hodes Professor of Fine Art and Dr Sara Chong Kwan, Senior Lecturer
