DIY ( Do it Yourself ) Nation

D.-

Quick post, relevant to nothing but my own interest in the arts and how they reflect culture.  A link popped up on one of my Google Alerts for Handmade Nation, a documentary set to be released sometime this winter.

Its producer, Faythe Levine, an entrepreneurial artist, “…took up a camera and struck out to document what she calls ‘the new wave of art, craft and design’ in America.  What resulted is a documentary chronicling the work of a country-wide community of boutique owners, subversive stitchers, puckish print makers and feisty knitters…”
Will have to tune in if only to catch any “Flash Needle” action.   Hope the film stitches a good plot.  Hope it doesn’t unravel.   Hope no cracked pots.
