Come experience the wonder of natural dyeing in this one-day workshop! Learn how to scour and mordant cotton fabric and apply natural color using immersion dyeing techniques.
By the end of the workshop, participants will understand how to properly prepare cotton for the dye bath and create their own natural dye pot. Each student will leave with a beautifully dyed cotton bandana they’ve prepared and dyed during class, along with three additional cotton samples to take home.
Please bring:
• Apron (or wear clothes you don't mind getting a little messy)
• Dish gloves (optional but nice if you don't want to get dye on your hands)
• Wear comfortable/closed-toed shoes
• Lunch, water. There will be a 1-hour lunch break. Participants are welcome to grab lunch nearby.
