The new Bellavia collection of luscious fiber wearables is now available! Convertible
components let you build a unique, personal range of looks, to add coordinating necklace, pendant, scarf, and hair ornaments
to your favorite wardrobe pieces. Medallion mosaics are the foundation of these new items, and work like any mosaic....beautiful
patterns emerging from building fiber components your own way.
This is also the year for Fiber Playdays as often as possible! Check out the
Winter retreat we're calling "Winter Fiber Playdays", on March 6 & 7, and download the flyer and registration
form by clicking on the "Playdays" page.
Check the "Find Me in Person" page for upcoming appearances, where you can see the new collection emerging
for 2010. You'll see new needlefelting textures, tapestry medallions, and more knitweaving. And be sure to see
the exciting educational opportunities if you get to stop at the Pearl Alley or Granville markets, as well as one of my favorite
events, the Sewing Smorgasbord in Thornville, Ohio (don't let the name fool you, yarn and fabric and everything that makes
them wonderful fill the halls).
Thanks as always, for your interest in my work.....
