  • Spheres Inspired by Freehand Patchwork by Danny Amazonas at the National Quilt Museum
    QuiltMuseum.org/BlockOfTheMonth AUGUST 2019 Spheres inspired by Freehand Patchwork by Danny Amazonas at the National Quilt Museum Quilt: Levitate by Danny Amazonas AUGUST 2019 Inspiration Levitate by Danny Amazonas Freehand Patchwork by Danny Amazonas is on exhibit at the National Quilt Museum from July 12 – October 15. “I realized working with fabric is far more complicated than painting technique-wise. A fiber artist won’t be able to mix colors in a palette, but can collect an array of colors and shades of fabric in order to create a unique piece of art with a full spectrum of colors. I love to cut fabric in large chunks to show the beauty of textile designs, and those designers should be praised and credited as well. Every piece of my artwork is machine sewn with invisible thread free-motion stitches.” Danny’s use of color and value creates visual depth and movement in each quilt. This month’s Block of the Month pattern incorporates many of these elements so you can experiment with color, large-scale prints, and dimension. Page 2 AUGUST 2019 Quilter: Danny Amazonas “I was born in Taiwan and always loved art in Danny Amazonas all forms. As a jack-of-all-trades I tried painting, sculpture, making gold jewelry, professional floral design, and even got into international cuisine! In the early ‘80s, I was working with mosaic art using various materials. When I returned home to Taiwan in the ’90s, I discovered the world of colorful fabrics and the art of quilting. I perceived quilting as the art of sewing pieces of fabric together to create a beautiful design.

  • Stitchery Fact Sheets Were Adapted from Creative Craft Techniques and Craft Fun: Unit B Handicraft Project with the Permission of Manitoba of Agriculture
    Stitchery The word "stitchery" is quite new but the techniques are centuries old. Stitchery includes all types of needle-and-yarn/thread fancy stitches done on a fabric background. Embroidery, crewel, teneriffe, Spanish black work, Swedish white work. Hardanger, drawn thread work, huck weaving, and cross stitch are but a few of the many types of stitchery. All types of stitchery make use of similar types of stitches but may be done with different kinds of threads or on different kinds of fabrics. Needlepoint, petitpoint, machinery embroidery, appliqué and smocking are also forms of stitchery but for the sake of clarity, are not included in this fact sheet. 1. Equipment and Materials a) Threads and Yarns Choose threads and yarns with textures which will emphasize the texture of the stitched design. For example, if stitching a daisy, you might consider choosing a smooth firmly twisted, maybe nylon shiny yarn for petal, a nubby yarn for the centre of the flower, and a very fuzzy loosely twisted yarn for stems and leaves. Contrasts in texture and yarn thicknesses are very important. Choose colors which will combine attractively with each other and with the background. Don’t overlook the possibility of using other ‘yarns’ like thread pulled out of burlap, baler twine, kitchen string, turkey cord, satin ribbon - j anything that conveys the message you are trying to put across with your stitchery. b) Needles For use with cotton embroidery thread, and thin yarn, embroidery and crewel needles - about size 6 are easiest to work with. When using wool or synthetic yarns, you’ll likely find a package of yarn needles most helpful.

PARKS EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR #1: BAND NEEDLEWORK SAMPLER- Sarah RELPH, in her 10th year, [England, or possibly Rhode Island], October 30, 1745 Linen ground with silk thread Known as a band sampler, this was a primary learning tool for a young woman of the 17th through the 19th centuries. Through a basic marking sampler, the young lady would learn to sew and use darning stitches, necessary for her future roles as wife, mother, and housekeeper. As samplers continued to be made, religious verses and maxims were added to guide her toward a purposeful life. Decorative bands of geometrical motifs were copied across the width of the sampler and served as a reference when the young woman wished to embellish an article of clothing or household linen. Inscription: “Make Much of Precious Time While in Your Power/ Be Careful Well to Husband Evry Hour/ for Time Will Come When You Shall Sore Lament/ The Unhappy Minutes That You Have Mispent Collection of Gary W.

  • 2015 UNESCO Annual Report a Satellite’S-Eye View Locates Paducah Within a Network of Cities Around the Globe That Are Stitched Together by the Creative Arts
    2015 UNESCO AnnuaL REPORT A satellite’s-eye view locates Paducah within a network of cities around the globe that are stitched together by the creative arts. A bird’s-eye view reveals a weave of waterways hemming the city and guiding its history. A needle’s-eye view takes you into the intricate stippling of a quilt that’s much closer to artwork in a museum than artifact in a linen closet. — DR. FRANK HUTCHINS Associate Professor of Anthropology, Bellarmine University Above photo: portion of Ricky and Lucy by Karen Sistek (Owensboro, Kentucky) from the National Quilt Museum Collection Greetings from Paducah! Since our city’s being named as a Creative City of Crafts and Folk Art in 2013, I have enjoyed watching Paducah’s creative evolution both locally and internationally. Each year we are able to develop new partnerships, expand our cultural offerings, and create additional sustainable development. The designation as a Creative City has opened numerous doors to collaborate with cities around the world. The Paducah Arts Alliance was pleased to host Sandro Tiberi, papermaker from Fabriano, Italy in April 2015 as a participant of the Artist in Residence Program. We look forward to many years of partnership with Fabriano and to developing strong relationships with all of the Creative Cities of Crafts and Folk Art. Paducah has experienced many opportunities for collaboration and recognition throughout 2015, and we look forward to many more in the years to come. In 2015, Paducah was named as one of eight forward-thinking river cities in the Saturday Evening Post; new buildings for the Paducah School of Art and Design were completed; and we have enjoyed another year of success for QuiltWeek and the Lower Town Arts and Music Festival.
