The Magic of Metamorphosis
– Includes 12 Bombyx Cocoons

Words and beautiful drawings describe the life cycle of the silkworm from egg to cocoon, to moth to silkworm again within a circle. The area outside the circle explains and depicts how the silken strand is released from the cocoon and made into yarn and cloth. The back is filled with further fascinating silk information. Beautiful for a studio wall or great teaching tool spanning science, culture and history. Measures 18.5" x 18.5".

We are proud to present our release of Silk Fusion with Karen Selk on DVD!

Silk Fusion is a unique process that bonds silk fibres into a lustrous kind of "felt" which can be gossamer and transparent or thick and opaque as leather.

Eight projects are presented in this video, each one demonstrating a different technique. Karen talks about silk fibre and shows the complete process of making a piece of flat silk fusion which can later be hand or machine stitched, painted, printed, folded or beaded. The projects include a journal cover, three-dimensional vessel, window hanging and greeting cards. Techniques include rubber stamping, painting, embossing, beading, embedding, shaping, scrunching, stencilling, nature printing and assembling. Easy solutions are provided for anticipated problems.

Winner of the Aegis Award of Excellence 2002, the Communicator Award of Distinction 2002, the Telly Awards 2003 and the Remi Award 2003!
