Product Description
In this three-part series, you’ll explore different fabrics and learn shibori techniques with artist Margaret Seelie. You’ll start with dyeing two tea towels and a tote bag in a pre-reduced indigo vat. Next, you’ll dye a table runner and oversize bandana in the sweet-smelling sugar vat. Last, you’ll dye four napkins and a throw pillowcase in the iron vat that yields beautiful vintage blues. If you sign up for all three workshops, you’ll come away with a full indigo-dyed dining set, or just take one workshop to see how you like it.
Please note: This workshop is held outdoors and is weather-permitting. Participation requires ascending and descending stairs. All materials are included.
