Be Still and Know

Here is my completed pulpit parament in memory of Lu. Dupioni silk with wool, silk and cotton floss. The work is approximately 22 x 32 inches.

This really WAS a joy to make in memory of a fabulous spitfire of a woman who made all those who met her feel they were heard and valued.

A Bridal Stole



The bride wore a white knit sleeveless knee length sheath from St. John, gold beaded pumps, with bold gold crystal earrings and this. 

80 inches long and 28 inches wide, dupioni silk, lined, with lace embroidery and beadwork in gold. A timeless look for a timeless couple.



Engagement by the Sea


I made a small gift for wonderful friends to mark their formal engagement. This measures about 3"x3" and the sea and surf is made up of tiny glass beads. Finished with cotton thread for the initials and starfish.

Storybook Wedding

Here are a couple of details from the stole completed this weekend. It is a custom order for a bride who is having a storybook wedding and wanted pixie dust reflected in the stole.

The white cotton fabric used as the base is Nicole Miller, dupioni silk for the cross and embroidered with silk floss. The beads used are a mixture of seed beads and crystals.
