MAQF 2018 Nuno-felted Scarf Class


I had such a great class Friday at the show, my Nuno-felted Scarf class was packed with 21 students! They were so incredible, sharing workspace as needed and also inspiration and ideas. Each student chose their favorite hand-dyed silk chiffon scarf, and then their fibers and embellishments from my "fiber buffet". Every scarf was so different, and absolutely gorgeous! I am so very proud of all of my students, not only for their beautiful art, but in the way they supported each other and worked together. Here is a sampling o their work, still wet...I can only imagine how wonderful the scarves looked after they dried and the colors and luster of the fibers came out!
 This was such a beautiful and elegant scarf, can you believe she finished first?
 Whimsical flowers and vines on a sea of blue.
 A wonderful abstract art piece, full of textures and vibrant colors!
 What a beautiful layout in this flower garden on an earth-tone silk scarf!
 Beautiful colors in this very wearable art scarf!
 I love this composition, she created fish swimming in an ocean of blue!
 This snow-dyed silk scarf was transformed into a wearable work of art by this student!
 What a sumptuous ruffle in this romantic piece!
 Rich, vibrant wool colors on a hot red and yellow silk scarf, love it!
A group of sisters and their friend were sweet enough to come by my booth at the show Saturday and show me their gorgeous scarves after they'd dried, wow!
My new "fashionista" friend Anne came by my booth to see me too, what a blessing it was to meet her! Truly, we are kindred spirits.
