"when you reach the end of your rope, tie a knot and hold on." -roosevelt
i love material! at one point in my life, i would have called myself a 'collector', but more accurately i was a borderline hoarder! i loved sewing my own clothes, making quilts and various home decor. since losing my sight, i took inventory of all this wonderful fabric and decided i would try to do something with it, so i am dabbling in fiber arts.
here is a small collection of fiber sculptures/baskets i have made from rope and fabric intended for quilts or clothes collecting dust in my closet.

this sculpture is my interpretation of how a blind person experiences the sunrise. this particular day offers a few clouds, the twisted wires are my early morning thoughts, the knotted fabric off the sides represents my 'bed head' hair and you will notice the rings in subsequent photos that read: honesty, respect, appreciate and faith. each are aspects of daily living i wish to keep keenly aware in my waking moments and thru out each day
