Maggie Wuts: Illinois; I’m a fiber and textile designer with interest in both practical and beautiful items. My pleasure comes in imagining and bringing into being items whose unique qualities cannot be manufactured or mass produced by machine. Wearable art accessories satisfy the practical side of me while being pleasurable, appealing and totally fun! I also love accessorizing the home. Fine art satisfies my need to delve into detail, especially in portraits. Wool vessels are simply intriguing to create and can be practical too. I find that wool as a medium is exciting because of all of it's great qualities - it can be dyed to vibrant colors, molded into form and shape, and worked both small and large. I’m an animal lover and purchase my wool from the Illinois Green Pastures Cooperative http://www.illinoisgreenpastures.org/ where local farms supply animal friendly products. I’m involved in rabbit rescue and have a revolving door of foster rabbits living in my home. Some of them even give me a little fur to spin.
