Adventures in Indigo

Indigo is the classic blue dye of the sophisticated 'tie-dyeing' process of Japanese Shibori. You will learn something of the history and traditions of this magical process so that you can create two traditional intricate Shibori patterns on cotton fabric - which can be used for patchwork and other sewing projects.

In addition you will have the opportunity to explore other techniques to create many sheets of indigo patterned tissue paper, which can be used for wrapping and book coverings, etc.

You will learn the basics of:
1) Shibori and Indigo dyeing.
2) Creating two pieces of cotton fabric with traditional Shibori patterns.
3) Decorating a number of sheets of tissue paper with indigo dye patterns.

A light lunch, refreshments and all materials are included in the workshop fee.
