I am an artist and painter, I create unique and original clothing, art that you can wear. My path is the path of beauty. Beauty is an expression of inner harmony, of the divine. Sometimes I wonder why I love to sew so much. Perhaps it is that the things I create are practical, paintings that can become part of yourself, an outer expression of inner light and joy. I have loved to sew since I was a child, and learned as soon as I was able to do it. to see some other things I have done have a peek at the link for Carol's fiber art history below. Carol's studio is in Woodstock, NY. You can come for a visit to try on available items, or look at her fabrics and explore possibilities for your own custom made piece. To arrange for a visit email her at sun19@earthlink.net . |
What you wear can be an extension of your inner world, dreams and imagination. Have you ever wanted or needed a vest, jacket or coat that is totally unique, even magical, that can make a statement about you and who you really are? Your body is an expression of your inner being, and what you wear can be a further expression of that. Carol will help you create what you want. Remember, imagination is without limits. Most of Carols' vests, jackets and coats have been made using the traditional Tibetan panel coat pattern and the traditional Turkish coat design. Her more recent Jewel Jackets are made with a pattern she created herself. You may choose from the clothing that is available, or have a custom made coat, vest or jacket. If you have any questions, email me at sun19@earthlink.net. Vest shown above left is Carol's own, it is called Fireworks, and was started July 4th 2004, the picture was taken in front of one of her paintings from the 1970's.

Today, I'm dancing, smiling, leaping, twirling, grinning,
singing, parading, loitering around mirrors, kissing people and pets,
strutting, leaping---all because...
I'm wearing the vest you made just for me!!! It is so-o-o-o-o-o much more beautiful than I ever imagined. I'm especially glad that I don't have to choose which side I love the most because they are both incredible. Happy, happy, happy, me. Perfect fit, perfect everything. Thank You Betty Diamond |

"Carol's coat is sheer magnificence! Such vibrant, healing colors. And what fine attention to detail. I made a "Healing with Eastern Energy Medicine" presentation to 30 business women, and everyone loved Carol's Fiber Art coat. A perfect complement. Bravo Artiste!"

| ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!! I received my vest today and I just cannot believe how nice it is. I cannot thank you enough for the work you have done on this. The layout, design, fabrics, and colors you chose are just perfect. Thank you so much for the beautiful Endless Knot with Lotus patch sewn into the back. It is everything I hoped it would be. I want to thank you also for the nice gift of the painting of the Lotus Chakra you sent with the Vest! I am going to frame it and put in in my bedroom for else my Shrine room to meditate on. You have the most artistic capacity to choose designs, colors, for your artistry. I will wear this vest with humble gratitude for your workmanship in mind every time I put in on. I have your card with your address and your e-mail address written down for when people will ask me where I got the vast so that I can have them contact you if they are also interested in having you design one for them. I know people will ask me. I will take good care of this and possibly in the future, I will contact you again to have a new one made for me. If and when I manage to get to travel to Woodstock to visit the Monastery I will look you up. You will see me coming; I will be wearing a Tibetan Style Vest!! :-) :-) Once again, I thank you sooooooo much for your beautiful workmanship and the wonderful painting you sent along. I will keep you and your family in my prayers and hope this letter finds you and your family happy and well. See you some day. With you in the Dharma, Gary M. |
| "I cannot even begin to tell you how much I love the vest! The colors are magnificent, I love the different fabrics you used and most of all I love that it it is reversible! I know I have seen pictures of some of your vests on your website and they are all so pretty, but this one is just unique and it really fits my style and personality. I can't thank you enough and the vest will most definitely be my favorite piece of clothing, and I will take extra special care of it!" Sheila Tatangelo |
| "The vest(s) arrived, and all
I can say is WOW! Well, there are quite a number of adjectives I can use,
but my goodness I never thought at first glance at the photos that my vest
would be so gorgeous. When I pulled it out of the package and tried it
on, the first thing my partner said was "Ohhh...vertical stripes...how
slimming."...this is a good thing by the way...LOL. I think the vest you
sent as a donation just rocks as well, and I'm certain we will have people
fighting (not literally) over it as far as trying to outbid each other. I
can't thank you enough for the great artistry and work that you put into
my vest. The fabrics fit me so well, and it is just the right length,
size, and weight. I know I will have everyone at the dinner asking me
about it. I also love the fantastical side as well, but I must admit,
after taking a good look at it, and at the back panel, I can't figure out
the inspiration. I keep looking at it and I keep thinking "It reminds me
so much of a shooting star...or the star that you see in a nativity
painting." . Am I at all close? Thanks again! I'd love to hear what your friends who you showed the vest to thought. It is truly a work of art, and it will become my most prized possession. I hope one day I'll be able to journey to Woodstock and thank you properly. Until then, I wish you much success in health, happiness and business, and I hope you reap all the benefits of your positive karma. Take care." Robin Berry |
