Study the fascinating world of Japanese Shibori (tie-dye) using one of the most elegant of natural dyes; Indigo. In this class, we will explore Indigo’s history and then, move into workshop mode to create a collection of samples. Using a variety of Shibori techniques, you will prepare and dye six unique table napkins, each employing a different shibori/tie-dye method. If time and our indigo bath permits, you may also prepare and dye a cotton t-shirt if you bring one (white or light color works best).

The workshop cost includes a kit of supplies (including the cotton napkins). We do ask that you bring scissors for cutting threads, plus a seam ripper or embroidery scissors if you have them to assist with unstitching/unbinding process.
