Fiber Artists

Fiber artists' creations cross many boundaries of textile traditions.

Fiber art creations may be functional or decorative or both, consisting of objects traditionally associated with textiles including clothing, rugs, linens, wall hangings, to name only a few. Construction methods traditionally include stitching, weaving, and surface design.

Fiber art often includes basketry, beadwork, braiding, clothing design, crochet, dyeing, embroidery, felting, hooking, knitting, lacework, mixed media, needlework, paper, quilting, sculpture, sewing, spinning, surface design, textile design and weaving.

Silk Fusion Artists

Silk Fusion, also known as Silk Paper or Silk Felt, is an exciting new creative process.

This unique method bonds silk fibres into a lustrous kind of "felt" which can be gossamer and transparent or thick and opaque as leather. Because the fibres are unspun, silk's rich luster and texture are captured.

Silk fusion is a perfect canvas for hand or machine stitching, printing, stamping, origami, quilting, jewellery, wearable art, book coverings, collage and on and on. We have all your silk fusion supplies.

To help you get started, there are complete instructions for making silk fusion on our web site. And we have developed an award–winning instructional dvd as well as a starter kit.
