Wearable Art
Functional
It's called 'wearable art' because it is. Wearable, and art. At the same time. Making it useful is icing on the cake. Aprons have been around for centuries. Worn by Cooks, and Bakers, Butchers, Candlestick-makers, and Cobblers too, and don't forget, Cabinetmakers.
Aprons are used to cover and protect your clothing, they're used to provide a convenient pocket. Use yours to add a splash of color worn as a hostess apron or buy one to give as a special gift.
All ChicoCreek full aprons feature 100% cotton fabric including the durable lining. Adjustable neck straps, extra-long waist strap and an oversize double pocket plus a full cut to protect your clothing. Use these every day, they're washable, durable and designed to last. Order yours today.
Half aprons made in true 'retro-style', with fancy decorative trim and satin embellishments you'll love the touches of whimsy that adorn these classic and historically accurate cover-ups.

'Hams 'n Jams' store north-eastern terminus of the Natchez Trace
Parkway, in Nashville, Tennessee. These half aprons will inspire and
amuse. 100% cotton (embellishments excepted.) Available by

Textile Arts
beautiful
The use of bright and colorful batik fabrics from Bali is the main element of my art. Whether it's a gallery quality wall hanging or a simple fabric bowl, you'll always be pleased with the sheer joy expressed by the vibrant color and active patterns.
art quilts
From small wall hangings to large scale art installations. My art quilts are inspired by the bold color, vivid patterns contained in the traditional and contemporary batik fabrics I love to work in. Each piece is hand cut, assembled and then machine quilted and edge bound. No two are alike. Commissioned orders accepted.
fabric bowls and vases
Useful and unusual. A perfect gift, these small pieces of art can be used as a catch-all for your keys or as a decorative accent. They are not intended for use with food or liquids, please don't try.

Bedding with a twist. Batik materials integrated into classical quilt designs. Some patterns are inspired by the famous quilters of Gees Bend, Alabama others by designs from Europe and Colonial America. Each quilt is a one-of-a-kind piece of art. Commissioned orders accepted.batik accessories
