About this event

Learn to create your own beautiful hand-dyed fabrics! You will become familiar with the principles of color theory, fabric dyeing using Procion fiber reactive dyes, and many surface design techniques such as immersion dyeing to create color progressions or value gradations; dye painting; bleach discharge; resist techniques; shibori; stamping and stenciling.
There will be an additional $10 fee paid to the teacher at the workshop to cover the cost of the dyes, chemicals and use of the stamps and stencils that Marjan will provide.

This will be at Beth Chambers' home. Bring your own lunch/snacks.
