Fiber: Material and Processing

Natural Dye Journals

My interest in natural fibers and found-foraged color stems from a lifelong interest in the outdoors and the vibrant world we live in.

I’ve combined my love of fiber with a grounding in the sciences and a growing awareness of local production systems to create a place-based and material-aware practice. I’m sharing images of my natural dye practice, yarn development, sample making, and garment samples. I share my work at local fiber fairs and farmers markets. I can usually be found displaying with the Southern California Fibershed and our local yarn purveyor Coachella Valley Yarn.
