From my fabric stash ~ Natural fabrics that were waiting for the perfect project

Scores of ties resist the dye made from madder in this wrap that is light enough to wear as a scarf too. After dyeing, I added a smattering of embroideries to accent the rounds. Only one.

Blue Sticks in several groupings in lilac on a navy ground on a light cotton voile scarf.

Ecoprints ~ I handcraft each scarf using leaves, flowers, tannins, heat, steam, and pressure to create each unique piece in the collection. Exploring nature’s beauty through her botanical gifts is an ongoing adventure, one that constantly surprises and delights.

Give one-of-a-kind ecoprinted scarves and wraps that coordinate well with the Sympatico line. Shown: Lovely Leaves Scarf/Wrap

The Alchemy Collection ~ Seemingly magical transformations happen when I unlock the power of oxidized metals. The Alchemy Collection is my latest foray into all the possibilities the organic world offers in dyeing fibers.

Dyed with black tea and rusted metal, the silk Cuppa Scarf is soft and beautiful.

The Polka Dot Scarf has attracted a lot of attention in my show booth. Made of our popular hemp/Tencel fabric in a soft neutral brown.

Hemp/Tencel Collection ~ I dye remnants using the ties and patterns of Japanese shibori, a technique employing manual resists to produce wonderful, tie-dye-like effects. Made from the same fabric as your Sympatico clothes, these scarves are one-of-a-kind.

Shades of Grey Scarf

I bought this batik fabric in Yogyakarta, the cultural center of Java, drawn there by its vibrant arts scene. Masters of resist dyeing and fabric painting, Javanese textile artists are among the world’s finest. I have just one of these scarves available.
