Delivered a couple more hats to 4 Ravens Gallery this past week. Still playing around with adding Sumi Ink to the silk fabric before felting. The burgandy/brown hat is trimmed with black Dupioni Silk fabric. The grey hat has several different hand dyed silk fabrics on the surface, also embellished with Sumi Ink and trimmed with a black leather band and ceramic button.
I have been working with natural fibers to create fiber art for 30 years. My main focus is on felting and creating felt hoods to create one-of-a-kind millinery hats. I also love make seamless felt garments, and a wide range of felt items. After all, you can make almost anything out of felt.
