Each Signature Fiber Art<\/strong><\/em> handbag starts in my head, with an original design<\/b><\/em>, and is then translated into a pattern. The process continues with hand knitting<\/b>, felting<\/b><\/em>, and blocking<\/b><\/em> to dry. Since each purse is an original, I also choose a special lining to add to the overall design of the purse. Inside pockets and a hand signed tag are added. The final and most important element of each design is my signature embellishment.<\/em>  <\/b>It is applied using a variety of hand-craft techniques, which I have been perfecting for over 35 years.<\/p>\n

Cream turns into butter<\/i><\/p>\n

Dough turns into bread<\/i><\/p>\n

Wool turns into felt<\/i> <\/i><\/p>\n

These things just happen with help from our hands.<\/i><\/p>\n
