What I am planning to read

Of course top of the list is my Quilting Arts Magazine that arrived yesterday - wonderful thing overseas post as I am sure that with having a subscription it came extra early. There were some interesting articles and pictures that will demand lots of attention. I find that even the advertisements are worth reading and checking out too. I am planning to go over to the USA and Canada later this year and there might be some places that I can check out when I am over there after all I am not going all that way without doing some serious shopping.

I got a couple of books from the library on symbolism in art which I think will be an interesting read - I had read small pieces before about the symbolism in pictures and what it all means but I wanted to delve more into this and see what there is to bring to quilts.

My other book to devour is one on Hundertwasser. His pictures are so colourful and inspiring. I am amazed too by his architecture and design. He lived (and died) in New Zealand and his legacy to New Zealand I suppose you could say were that he designed some public toilets - apparently they are quite a sight! Anyhow I think this will be an interesting book.
