Love Fabric? Love Unique and Creative Wearables? Then check out Zaz and Moe, Susan Delsandro Hellier's website for wearable art. 

I was wowed when I came across her booth at the Yarmouth Clam Festival Craft Fair. The creative designs of her skirts completely took me by surprise with their unique approach to creating a woman's skirt. The simple cut of the common a-line skirt are a backdrop to the cut-through designs (there must be a formal name for this technique, but I don't know what it is), which are hand stitched to the backing fabric. In fact, Susan hand stitches her skirts entirely without any machine work. I get a mellowing and calming feeling about how she approaches her craft by avoiding the "machine." 

Susan had other items in her booth but I can't remember what they were - her skirts loomed large in my memory, I guess. But you can check out her website and see for yourself. I urge you to do that!
