Inspirational Artist, Teacher and Author, Maggie Grey

Friday, May 1st, 2009

Aaah, another Brit!  I have found that many of my favorite fiber artists are British.  They seem to have a large, prolific population of artists dedicated to experimentation in fiber.  I think they are doing some of the most interesting fiber work around.  Maybe it’s access to all those sheep.  Anyway, I am grateful for all of the knowledge I have gleaned from across the pond.  I only wish some of them would come across to the States to teach!

I have been following British fiber artist Maggie Grey for years.   She has consistently put out some of the most interesting non-traditional fiber technique books I’ve seen (I have many of them), she has a fabulous blog; loaded with pictures and techniques, and wonderful online projects to subscribe to with her Workshop on the Web courses.  Warning: you can spend hours looking at all of the information that this talented woman has put out!  Enjoy!
