New Work Photo Shoot - May 2012

 I have been constructing a number of studio-dyed boleros because I love the fabric that has 60% shrinkage. The boleros above all are merino wool felted together with natural silk fiber (not fabric). The scarves are dyed to match the boleros and felted with fabric and wool using the hyprid felt collage technique I developed a year and a half ago. The

My most recent work is the lilac and magenta kimono style coat is constructed of handmade felt  - studio dyed with some shibori pole-wrapping techniques.
