Here it is 2012 and I am so excited, I just know its going to be the best ever. I have started a new warp on my loom, making some very textured art work from Alpaca, leather, semi precious stones and some of my wool hand-spun yarns. I am having so much fun creating each [...]

Whats Weaving Now

By Karen ⋅ September 11, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

I have been working every chance I get on new art scarfs for my upcoming shows. I have to say, every time I finish one, it becomes my “favorite”! Color and texture are such a big part of why I love to weave and spin fiber. It is just too fun creating the color combinations [...]

New Off the Loom

By Karen ⋅ August 28, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

I just finished a table scarf or bed scarf (it works for both) on my loom. It is made from recycled remnants of silk cut into ribbon yarn. The colors are so bold. It would look fantastic on a long wooden dinner table! I am working on two scarfs and a belt right now, both [...]

Mixed Media Collage

I have been working on these two pieces off and on for the last year and decided that I am now finished with them. I have really enjoyed working with paper collage again. It is so creative for me. Like putting a puzzle together, I go through magazine after magazine looking for just the right [...]

Two Times Creativity

By Karen ⋅ August 7, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

I currently have both my looms warped and am working back and forth between the two. It certainly adds even more variety to the process! I have been making fiber art purses. After taking the body of the purse off the loom, I sew the lining in, and sew it all together. I then warp [...]

Hot off the Loom!

There is no doubt about it, It is hot, 21 days straight of over 100 degrees here in Texas. For me, that means staying inside in the studio, with the AC on, weaving and creating! I just got a new loom, it is a baby wolf by Schacht. I bought it from a member of [...]

You Can Never Have Too Many Purses.

I have been working away here at Luna Azul Studio, putting my new woven purses together. The collection of colors, textures and fibers are endless in these new creations. There is everything from “Mystic Seas” to “Raspberry Sherbet” ! Each purse is a one of a kind, fully lined with batik fabric and the strap [...]
