Fabric Collage

All my fabric work is hand stitched. Most often, I use vintage fabrics or fabrics that I paint or dye — most often with plant materials, rust or tea.

Woodland Path – framed 11×14″
This piece came together during a retreat in a beautiful, wooded landscape in eastern Washington. The path was dyed from madrone bark, while the rocks were stained with tea and iron. The trees were from an upcycled pair of men’s wool pants, and the background a stained and painted scrap of vintage silk curtains. Available.
