Dyeing with natural dye is a prominent feature of my work. The colors obtained from these dyes are beautiful and complex. This past year my focus with these dyes is “the neighborhood”,  the place where I live. I only need to walk out the door at home to find dyestuffs. My dye notebooks are full of the colors of nature on samples of silk, linen, cotton, and wool cloth and yarn. These notebooks will continue to inspire me to create handsome cloth which respects the earth and pleases the eye.
