Learn how to make botanical art with plants like Marigold, Indigo (Persicaria tinctoria), Cosmos and others sourced from nature. Take home a piece of textile art and your own open-pollinated, organically-cultivated, climate-adapted seeds to grow yourself.

In this 6 hour private lesson over 2 days, we will cover the basics of natural dyes:

• scouring,

• mordanting,

• and dyeing fibres using a range of techniques.

Experiment with dye methods such as

• hammer printing,

• bundle dyeing,

• and dip dyeing with a resist

Bring your own light-coloured 100% cotton, wool or silk fabric or use the materials supplied.

Workshop is limited to 3 people on site at my home studio. If you have me come to your location, an additional fee of $50 will apply.
