I just saw queer and fiber art and knew I had to read it. Some really beautiful and fascinating art!

I wanted to read Queer Threads as a queer fiber artist, and I really enjoyed it. It's nice to see an art book dedicated to queer art and art that queers the viewer's perspective. It's messy, intricate, and fun. One thing I loved was that the interviewers often intimately know the artists they interviewed. It feels like being invited into a conversation between old friends. My only complaint is that the book is separated out into the art in the first section and the interviews in the second section. I found it made the experience disjointed when trying to figure out which images from the first half of the book relate the stories being told in the latter half. I think it would have been a 5 star read had the images been integrated into the interviews to form a cohesive narrative for each individual artist.
