This show opens on Saturday, September 16th in Washington DC, but it was organized by the American Folk Art Museum of New York. Part of the exhibition is what they call a Community Quilt. And the curators explained "Visitors to the exhibition are invited to contribute to our community quilt. Stitch a place in the cartography of Washington, D.C., that holds special significance for you." I am not sure how that will work but I am intrigued.

I am primarily a dressmaker, not a quilter, but I have been inspired by beautiful colors and shapes in quilts. This show offers up traditional early-American quilts up to contemporary quilts. Click through to see m ore info and for some pictures.

| 🌿Coyuchi ➖Cotton species native to Mexico, in a light beige - cinnamon colour: Coyuchi comes from the Nahuatl 'coyōichcatl' which means ‘coyote [coloured] cotton’. The names for cotton in the languages of Mexico indicate that its first peoples have known of the plant and its cultivation for a very long time -- thousands of years before the arrival of Hernán Cortés. -- They succeeded in developing a resistant crop and an excellent fibre and their art and skill survives today, resisting the invasion of synthetic fibres derived from petroleum. The filaments of white and coyuchi “alert us that our future wellbeing will not ooze out of oil wells but will grow in fields which resemble gardens” - Alejandro de Ávila, curator of 'Coyuchi y blanco | Flores de Algodon' / 'Brown and white | Flowers of cotton', Museo Textil de Oaxaca.

My last day in Switzerland was stitching in the famous St. Gallen Textile Museum. I gave a talk about my work and then proceeded to stitch stitch stitch portraits! Sadly I was working too hard to see the exhibitions! Embroidered textiles have long been a speciality of St. Gallen, their expert craftsmanship was exported all around the world since the 1800’s! It’s a delicate white embroidered fabric looking similar to lace and worn by royalty of the ages right up to Michelle Obama! Thank you St. Gallen textile museum for making me feel so welcome! #lovetextiles #textilemuseum #stgallen #embroidery #portraiture #stitch #people (at Saint Gallen)

Found this rad book of Inuit art stickers once upon a time at the textile museum right before this self isolation thing hit. It is museum worthy, “ages 3 to 103!” The store clerk had trouble locating it in the store and when it came time to pay I nearly had to pry it out of another clerk’s hand cause everyone wanted to look through it. These stickers are MINE!! Meh ahaha 👹The exhibit they had on was good too, I’ll write my review later. #inuitart #stickers #artstickers #textilemuseum #capedorset #capedorsetart (at Textile Museum of Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-LtqLuAvsw/?igshid=1bdkfq39mds3w

Field trips are excellent for contextualizing visual culture, and experiential engagement, but honestly I really love hanging out with my students and peers #textilemuseumofcanada.#textilemuseum #senecafashion (at Textile Museum of Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9Sg8Bkgozs/?igshid=5z93fw3n17a2

Italy, of course, has a long history of textile production and of fashion, but I only just learned about the Museum of Textiles in Prato, Italy, which is in Tuscany. It has two shows running at the same time, one called Two Centuries of Fashion and Textiles Design which runs plus a more focused show on Kimono - Reflections of Art between Japan and the West. Both are open through November 19, 2023.

Click through to find more information and some select images from the shows.

[mrbiography]

Samuel Slater. Son of a yeoman farmer was born in Derbyshire, England on June 9, 1768. He became involved in the textile industry at the age of 14 when he was apprenticed to a mill operated the first set of cotton mills in England. Samuel Slater today is known as the Father of the Textile Industry for his business savviness and his charismatic persona to push the industry to a global perspective. Back in the day's organic fabric creation began in ancient times roughly around 5000 BC when primitive peoples used flax fibres, separated into strands and woven into simple fabrics coloured with dyes extracted from plants. These measures later than evolved with the 3Ts Talent, Time and Technology. . . . . . . . . . #textileartists #textilepainting #textilesmexicanos #textiledesignstudio #textilelovers #textilelover #textileshop #textiledesigns #textilecollage #textilesdesigner #textilecraft #textileprints #textiletanahabang #textilejewellery #prilaga #textilepaint #textilesart #textiledesigners #textiletuesday #textileofindia #textilewaste #textilemuseum #textileaddict #textileindonesia #textilesstudent #textilehistory #textileinspiration #textiledesignlab https://www.instagram.com/p/CAKzeYhja-9/?igshid=1tyujfzzzmlj9
