Peninsula Fiber Artists have pulled the curtain back on a new show at their walk-by exhibit at 675 Tyler St., Port Townsend.

The new display features vintage Japanese garments and shoes, kites, new handbags crafted from vintage obis, and silk yardage.

The “Fiber Habit” exhibit will continue through August, and includes vintage kimonos, a haori jacket, a yukata summer-weight robe, the kimono sashes known as obis, and shonon wooden shoes collected by Donna Lee Dowdney of Bainbridge Island and Sue Gale and Leslie Dickinson of Port Townsend. 

Gale and Dickinson also used vintage garment fabric to create new items.

Fiber artists in Jefferson, Kitsap, and Clallam counties participate in the walk-by exhibit in Port Townsend, which changes every two months. Monthly meetings for the group rotate between Olympic Peninsula locations. 

The group is also creating an exhibit at Wilderbee Farm’s Meadery, 223 Cook Ave. Ext., Port Townsend.
