So, to open the show (lol); over at Beautiful Decay, they've linked to a tumblr called "Carter Family Portraits" in which Beyonce, Jay and their family are photoshopped into iconic works of art. But is it "art"? I don't have the answer to that, but they're enjoyable! :) Find them HERE
"Form, not Function: Quilt Art at the Carnegie" opens at the Carnegie tonight - through July 12, 2014 check that out

The DePaul Art Museum is hosting a quilt exhibition called "From Heart to Hand" now through June 22. You can read a review of it
HERE
Museo has a show called “I Can’t Believe It’s Fiber”, which opened last weekend and
continues until June 1, 2014 at their gallery in Langley, Washington. You can see a link to that HERE
Here's a fun thing! It's only a few minutes long, but it's a short video of Picasso working real-time. I once saw a painter do a time-lapse painting and that was really fun too - but hey, it's Picasso! Even if you're not a fan - it's Picasso! lol You can check that out
HERE.
If you're a member of QuiltArt, then you saw me post about this already, but the reason I had the link so handy is because I was saving it for YOU ('cuz I like you best) *heh*; so did you know that PBS does a show called "Craft in America"?
They do! I just found out about last week and have
devoured all the episodes they have available online - but my favourite one is called "Threads". It features Faith Ringgold and Terese Agnew (and others), and was just
incredible to me. Ms. Agnew's work was a revelation! So, you can watch that video
HERE
And last but not least, Annabel Rainbow and Linda Kemshall have begun an online fiber arts magazine called
Through Our Hands which is free (!) and which you can read
