Each piece Kathleen creates has a personality
of it's own with a creativity that you will not find elsewhere.
Her unique hand bags range from five hanging pocket pieces
to three sided hanging works to small beaded purses. Kathleen
has created hundreds of original bag designs and is continually
coming up with new ideas for shapes, sizes, color combinations
and function. You can see a selection of these designer hand
bags in the gallery section as they continually evolve into
new shapes and forms.
The fiber shawls Kathleen knits are elegant with a wonderful
mix of color and playfulness. Each one evolves into it's final
form through a creative process of knitting, felting, embroidery
and in some cases beading. The colors, shapes and patterns
of these shawls demonstrate Kathleen's understanding of pure
aesthetics while combining these clean designs with the textures
of various fibers from mohair, to silk, rayon, cotton and wool.
The latest evolution of Kathleen's work has come with gallery
pieces in the form of fiber sculptures. These award winning
pieces have no boundaries and allow Kathleen to push the limits
on what may be created with fiber.
