September Cornucopia


This is the monthly post where I gather together all the links to interesting or useful or educational things that I've read, looked at, listened to or watched during the month.

What a beautiful installation by Rachel Hayes outside (and inside too) of the International Quilt Museum in Lincoln, Nebraska.

Can visual artists get people to vote? Now that's a good question. The first illustration in the article is of Shirley Chisholm is really a wow! “It’s hard as an artist to not be political,” Aaron Johnson told Hyperallergic. “Your choice to be an artist in the first place, in this society, and what kind of voice your work has, has real political considerations.”

A new thing for quilters I heard about from Art Gallery Fabrics is something called, Hey Quilter. Which is a super cute name, and yes, yet another email newsletter. But there are prizes, so there's that.

Sketchbook Revival is already happening, but I think you can still sign up for the free workshops. Very varied and inspiring.

What a fun idea for a book, Stitching Science. This is me, putting it on my list.

Yet another article, this time in a scholarly journal about Arts & Crafts being a good thing for your mental health.

Another free event that's underway already but I think you can still sign up and learn is this year's Gel Printer's Summit.

Did you know you can take a picture of a piece of fabric and then use it in the EQ8 program? There's a new booklet that they've published that covers this and other things. Thinking about getting it because that's a pretty cool function I had no idea about.
