The Silk Experience

What is 'The Silk Experience' ????

It is a consortium of creative designers, teachers and authors interested in furthering the usage of silk. These fiber artists are eager to explore new processes and to produce and/or introduce products that are necessary to achieve their discovered processes. Most of all, this group of talented artists wish to share their experiences with other fiber enthusiasts. Thus the title Silk Experience.

In conjunction with the silk classes, we also network with various silk related businesses that wish to promote the increasing use of silk and materials, tools and supplies needed for specific silk techniques and processes.
