In today's Thursday Styles section of the NY Times is a great article "The Knitting Circle Shows Its Chic" by Ruth La Ferla about the new wave of hip young crafters and our fashion savvyness. Turns out crafters are not only inspired by fashion designers, but fashion designers are also getting inspired by crafters. Who knew that fashion designer Marc Jacobs was inspired by the quilts of Gee's Bend in his spring 2007 collection?! Love it!
