The first day we learned about manipulating cotton in folds and gathers and then dyeing the cloth in vats of dye. This method of dyeing is called Shibori. The second day we used natural indigo in our vats.
It was a wonderful learning experience and a great opportunity to network with some members of the Fibre Art Network who were attending the workshop, as well as make some new friends.
Here are some of my results from the workshops.
The one below is my favourite.
Your fabrics turned out wonderful. Do you have plans for them or they for your stash at this time?
