Be inspired by this wonderful presentation of stylish bags and award winning wearable art! Vests, jackets, purses, belts, scarves, and more created with lustrous dupioni silk, quality quilted cottons, beautiful batiks, hand cut leather, nubby knits, and gossamer hand dyed organza. See how to embellish with specialty threads, Asian charms, fabulous fiber fringes, dimensional beading, exquisite closures, beaded tassels, and Swarovski crystals. Simple sewing techniques such as machine embroidery, free motion quilting and appliqué are the surface design basics of this collection. Some of the “show” garments include the hand beaded Golden Dragon Kimono Ensemble for the Fairfield Fashion Show and vests filled with lustrous threads from the Sulky Challenge.
