J for Jen Hewitt My Admiration for a Fellow Fiber Artist

This is Jen Hewitt. She prints fabric with hand carved blocks and silk screen designs.

Her Etsy shop has a whole selection of beautifully printed pieces you can buy by the yard.

 

She teaches classes you can attend in person in some wonderful locations as well as online.
I have been following her for a few years. She has done very well for herself
as a self employed solo fiber artist. Bravo! She puts her heart out there
 on matters of race & gender. She is working on her second book about crafters of color.

Fringe & Company

Jen's aesthetic appeals to me. Simple forms that repeat, many inspired by nature.


One of my recent creations that echos her design style.

I think along the same lines. No pun intended.

Her sweet little dog is a frequent subject of her Instagram feed.
