Everything we create is a hand-made piece of wearable art. No two pieces are ever the same!
We encourage you to stop by and see our newest designs at the upcoming summer art fairs we'll be at, and also visit the specialty boutiques where you'll find our unusual, sure to be noticed, pieces of art.
Here are some EXAMPLES of our original, one-of-a-kind, fiber art pins and pendants :

Panno Bella means " beautiful cloth " in Italian. With that as a starting point, Panno Bella Fiber Art Studios began....
Darlene Habanek and Susan Reading have been friends for over 30 years. Darlene had always been a traditional quilter, while Susan liked to work with many different art mediums. When they decided to collaborate, Panno Bella Fiber Art Studios came to be.
Darlene taught Susan that you can paint with needle and thread, and Susan taught Darlene that coloring outside the lines isn't necessarily a bad thing. They both share a fascination with fabric : colors, textures and patterns fuel each of their imaginations, not to mention their always expanding fabric and fiber collections.
All these interests have led to the creation of original pieces of wearable art. Every pin, pendant, purse, jacket and postcard they make is unique in design - truly one-of-a-kind. And with that as their main tenet, they continue to create fiber art that pleases the eye and sparks the imagination.
