KAREN BORGA

FIBER ARTIST

CREATING One Thread at a time

Let me INSPIRE YOU! 

As a Fiber Artist, Karen spends her days creating clothing and decor from wool. Often she starts the project by purchasing the fleece directly from the shepherd’s farm or at Fiber Festivals. The creative steps involved in transforming the wool into yarn and then apparel are when the creative magic happens. 

Karen believes that being inspired and creative is a spiritual connection to the Divine. 

In a world filled with distractions, making time for art is not just a fun hobby, but a crucial aspect of living a fulfilling and balanced life. Whether you prefer painting, writing, wood crafting, or any other form of creativity, schedule time for it in your life. Remember, creativity is a spiritual connection to the divine and by dedicating time to your art, you allow yourself to tap into that divine inspiration. So don’t let life’s distractions hold you back, make time for art today and elevate your life to a whole new level of balance and joy.

  • Grandkids are coming to decorate heart-shaped sugar cookies! Getting the cookies baked and ready for the fun part. 

Pictured is one of my handwoven towels. I love using them. I make them extra big. And, they get softer and softer after every wash.

  • Decided to clean out leftover scraps of dyed wool. Just grabbed a color and spun - dropped it and picked up another. There was no pattern, just having fun! Now, it can be moved into the stash pile! LOL!
