It's not often that the quilting world is featured in business journals. This week, however, the International Business Times mentions in an article that quilting (and the work exhibited in the National Quilt Museum in Paducah,KY), while perhaps not forefront in everyone's mind, is changing the way many think when it comes to what constitutes fine art.
"If not already a believer, everyone who visits the museum leaves converted as to the magnificence behind the museum's many masterpieces," says Museum CEO Frank Bennett. "What's more," he says, "they come away with a new sense of respect for what's been one of the most misunderstood, yet growing art forms in the world."
In Episode 1113, the TQS crew stopped by the museum for a visit while taping our 2012
Legend show. SHOW 1113 IS OPEN TO ALL MEMBERS THROUGH SUNDAY.
