Designer Bio

 

My name is Debbie Barrett-Jones and I am a Kansas City artist. I create one of a kind, custom colored hand-woven textiles for homes, businesses, churches and hospitals. Along with my large woven pieces, I love making scarves. Scarves are my learning tools to figure out how colors work together and then I can apply what I have learned to my larger pieces. I am a weaver, which means I get to see and be a part of the transformation of a white cone of yarn into a colorful delicate piece of fabric and just this past year I have been able to take that delicate piece of fabric and give it new life. By taking images of my woven work, I am creating new designs and compositions through photography and digital manipulation, then having those designs being printed a variety of different everyday life style items to enjoy.
