SPOTLIGHT:  Susan Savage

Here is another member, picked at random, Susan Savage! She is another person of many talents from many years of weaving and spinning to fair isle knitting. I got to know her a little better while carpooling to a meeting — did you know she is a scientist and spent many years in Alaska studying wildlife! Below you will find several pictures of her Show & Tell items. ​

SPOTLIGHT:  Lynn Baritelle

I decided to pick a member, at random, and showcase them here on our blog. Lynn is the first to showcase! She is multi-talented in several fiber crafts including: dyeing, weaving and spinning. I recently found out she has a 35 shaft loom! WOW! I also heard her say she loved weaving so much that she went to school and received a Masters in weaving.  Below you will find several pictures of her Show & Tell items.

Bring color and beauty to the world, one fun project at a time!

"The life of an artist isn't alway an easy one but sometimes that struggle is exactly what a creative spirit needs! Much like a Phoenix I have come into my own and realized my artistic passions. Fiber, felt, buttons, yarn and more. It is my pleasure to share my work in this shop. I hope you find all your looking for and more."
— Lauralee

Lauralee Deluca is one of our more "colorful" members and I felt she needed sharing!  Being sort of a fiber maniac, she loves creating luscious blends for yummy yarns and felted projects. She teaches and sells her goods at events and local yarn shops.
It’s been a very colorful summer at the Phoenixx Fiber Studio!
