Description

Learn the beautiful art of natural bundle dyeing! In this two-hour workshop, you'll gain an understanding of how to work with natural dyes as you explore the process of bundle dyeing.

This workshop will cover:

Introduction to natural dye plants and mordants
Introduction to protein-based and cellulose-based fibers
Overview of natural dyestuffs including onion skins, cochineal, turmeric, avocado skins, fresh and dried flowers, black tea, eucalyptus, and more
How to bundle dye on silk and cotton, including how to prepare the fabric, place the dyestuffs, bundle the fabric, and steam the fabric on a stovetop.

Each student will leave with two dyed pieces (a cotton dish towel and a silk scarf), and the know-how to design and create more pieces on your own.

Class fee includes instruction and all the necessary supplies and materials (including dyestuffs and fabrics). No prior experience necessary - beginners welcome!

Anonymous review on 10/21/2018

Great class! Joey was super helpful and I learned a lot. I think it would have been better with slightly fewer people though...there wasn’t enough room for everyone to spread out their fabrics on the table. And a couple of people used up a LOT of the dyestuffs.

Fun class. I really like the teacher but wish she’d give more examples of final results and how to achieve a desired look. For instance letting the class know Techniques for getting a lot of color and techniques for getting a little color. It was hard to know if we were using too many of the herbs and flowers, etc. or not enough.
