| Introduction | My name is Julie B. Booth. I am a fiber artist, fiber arts teacher and owner of Thread Born Dolls. I create multi-layered fabrics using painting, printing and more recently, resist techniques. The resists I use can be found in your kitchen. I've spent the last year exploring and experimenting with using common household materials as fabric resists as part of a grant project. It continues to be an exciting and inspiring journey. Some of my fabrics become cloth "dolls" others "speak" to me as pieces of art in and of themselves. I am also a fiber arts teacher who enjoys sharing my surface design discoveries with others. I show my work at Potomac Fiber Arts Gallery in Alexandria, VA. I am a member of F.I.N.E (Fiber in Nearly Everything) a group of mixed media fiber artists who show work locally and nationally. Other endeavors include designing patterns and projects for those that are young or "young at heart". |
