Welcome to Milkweed Arts

... where wool and silk partner in the ancient art of feltmaking, made new in one-of-a-kind designs for your personal wear, home, business, and sacred space.

  

Each autumn the rough, sun-bleached milkweed pod tells its secret, bursting in white enchantment along roads and fields. I would like to make art as the milkweed does, allowing each piece to grow from an image, color, or word that has graced the path of a day. I want to let the seeds go where they will, and create something beautiful for ordinary use.

"Endless returning . . . not farewell, but faring forth into the grace
of transformed continuance . . . "
