Published by Times Square Press, New York. The Sewing circle, is a term referring to a secret group of lesbians and bisexual actresses who met at certain places to engage into intimate and sexual relationships. Many actresses of the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s participated in the sewing circles. The term was coined by actress Alla Nazimova. Those actresses lived double lives. It was during this particular era of Hollywood that the 'lavender marriages' became known and quite common; they gave the appearance of people and stars being legally and normally married, while in real life, they lived separately and engaged into sexual relationships with the same sex.
