Culture Clash- collaged cashmere scarf

Culture clash

I’m making cashmere scarves again. We’ve had such odd weather here in Southern California- ranging from the 50s to the 80s within a couple week’s time. Staying in touch via Facebook and Flickr reminds me that it’s still really cold in many parts of the world! This scarf pretty much epitomizes my love of the mix…in fashion, design, food…just about everything!

I designed this scarf from cashmere and cotton remnants salvaged from recycled sweaters. I love digging through my box of “stuff” and adding bits and pieces of silk applique, felted wool, etc.

Shooting Shaina

I did a fun photo shoot with my friend, Shaina, last week. I love her free spirit and dry humor. Here are a few of my favorite shots.

“Te Amo”

"Te Amo" Frida-inspired ensemble

Today I’m working on a Frida Kahlo- inspired ensemble created from a mix of found and salvaged textiles. The “te amo” screenprint came from a vintage pillow case that had seen better days. The apron is removable and can be worn separately.

I have a very special person in mind to model this during my May Day spring event. :)
