About Kristen Barnett

Being a textile artist has always been a dream of mine!  As a girl, I sat beside my mother and grandmother as they would hand-craft the most beautiful quilts, clothing and home goods.  What I learned from them has inspired my own creations, and I am still learning today. New passions for natural dyes have opened up world of lovely possibilities. I am honored to share them with you.

My Studio

Painting with fabric is the easiest way to describe my art! I make my own natural dyes from regionally grown indigo, locally foraged and grown plants, flowers, berries, and food waste.  I dye 100% natural Upcycled and new fabrics with these dyes.
