2014 Quilts in Art Calendar

I needed a 2014 desk calendar with quilts in it. So I made one. Several years ago I did a wall calendar with altered paintings, which kept me entertained all year. I whipped up a few more collaborations between the Great Masters and me and used Blurb.com to design and publish a calendar.

The Cestello Annunciation
About 1490
Collection of the Uffizi Gallery

The cover painting was originally by Sandro Botticelli

That floor just called out for quilt blocks.
Who doesn't need a little extra help in placing a sampler?


Each month has an altered painting

Woman Before an Aquarium
1921-1923
Collection of the Art Institute of Chicago
Detail of Henri Matisse's painting.

Our collaboration.

It will keep you amused all year and give you important holiday information. I needed all the silly holidays in one place. I can't tell you how many times I have missed International Talk Like a Pirate Day or National Polka Dot Day or National Peach Ice Cream Day.

Never again.



The weekly calendar features important dates such as
 National Dress Up Your Dog Day on January 14th.



Like yesterday was National Nut Day. Cashews or pink hair?
You can interpret the holiday any way you care to.


It's 5" x 8" so you can carry it with you or leave it on the desk.
