Welcome to Sandra Golbert's Portfolio.
My work is in Fiber, mostly hand-made paper, wood, or hand-dyed silk with surface design.
I began working in fibers more than 50 years ago as a child, when I designed and made dolls’ clothes! Then I went on to design costumes and clothing for "real people", and my designs appeared in Vogue magazine.
