I am an artist, weaver, writer and educator. My site includes galleries of my handwoven, naturally-dyed art work, installations and excerpts from my writing on textiles and art, and descriptions of my textile workshops.
Yvonne's speciality is creating clothing, ceremonial items, medicine bags using Native smoked tanned hide decorated withs beadwork, quills or moose hair tufting. She also offers classes in these decorative artforms.
I own a quilt pattern company which has over 490 quilt patterns. I also create art quilts made of fabric, thread and a little paint. My art quilts are landscapes, flowers and animals such as a dog or sea lion.
My work is about contrast and texture, using layers and many different materials, including glass and metal, to get the results I'm after.
