My newest Project! For this wearable work of art I was inspired by the book "In Her Hands" by Tuttle. It provides beautiful photographs and text of women all over the world and their tradition craft. Creating their craft is their way of life, and their hands are everything to them.
I wanted to expand my interest in weaving and got started on a rigid heddle loom. The bodice of the dress is all handwoven using different weaving stitches. Additionally I hard two embellishment trims at the waist. The skirt is a two-tone sheer voile fabric. More Pictures under my portfolio!
