Nice Threads

Fiber Gallery/

Studio

 
 

Felt is material made from wool and magic, from wisps and clouds transformed to lightweight garments, caressing the skin and holding the body's warmth. It is an ancient craft, older than spun or woven threads. Yet it is still practiced daily, providing lovely and useful items for both modern and tribal cultures.

My garments and accessories are created from the finest wools and the sheerest silks, hand-dyed, hand-felted, hand-shaped. Each is unique, evolving from disparate elements into a miraculous whole, through the magic of felting.

My studio will move to the new Gallery Space in January, and weekly demonstrations and classes in feltmaking will be offered to the public.
