From Photos to Fibers
The 100 Day Project
Join me on a 100 day creative journey where I will be combining my two loves — photos + fibers. From January 31st through May 10th, 2021 I will be drawing inspiration from photos I have taken + creating fiber art from it. Whether it be abstract interpretations, strictly colorways, or a realistic “painting with fiber” technique — each week I will share a new photo + the inspo behind that week’s completed piece on my ‘gram.
Throughout The 100 Day Project, I will also be adding the original photos to my online store for you to purchase individually or alongside the one-of-a-kind inspired fiber art.
To follow along on my process, check out #100daysofphotostofibers.
Below are a few “Photos to Fibers” pieces I made throughout the last year that were the catalyst for this year’s theme. In the next 100 days, as I create more — I’ll add more ;)
Thanks for following along!

p.s. — do you have a memorable photo you want turned into fiber art? Good news :: I am now accepting commissions, learn more about it or contact me directly to get started.
p.p.s. — I am continuing my photos to fibers theme and creating a new collection for 2022’s The 100 Day Project, February 13th to May 23rd. To follow along on this year’s journey, check out #100moredaysofphotostofibers.
p.p.p.s. — Thanks to a 100 day creative journey, I found my niche within the fiber community! I will continue to explore turning my original photos into fibers, and even reimagining some favorites. To continue following along, check out #photostofibers.
