Barbara Brackman has taken 16 masterpiece paintings - from painters such as Vincent Van Gogh, Henri Rousseau, and Georges Seurat - and added something having to do with quiltmaking - a quilt or two, a sewing machine, patchwork clothing.  As the introduction states:

Few art historians realize the importance of patchwork quilts to the great painters of the past. Barbara Brackman - who informs us she took several art history classes in her college years - reports the discovery of a group of previous unknown masterpieces. At Kansas CityStar Books, we have a sneaking suspicion that she has also taken several classes in digital photo manipulation. But we are humoring her, and therefore present this calendar, which will amuse quilters and art lovers alike.

This 16-month calendar includes 2009 and the first four months of 2010.  Also included is Barbara's Paint Box pattern - a quilt pattern inspired by Gustav Klimt's painting "The Kiss."  The finished quilt measures 30" x 40".
