I run workshops to introduce you to indigo dyeing and shibori, throughout the summer in my studio and
garden in Radwinter near Saffron Walden England.
Come and
enjoy a creative day in an idyllic garden setting using the cottons, silk scarves etc I can provide
for you! Or bring your white shirts, T-shirts etc and transform your wardrobe for the summer!
Learn about this magical blue dye and how to use it on cottons and silks, using Japanese shibori
techniques. Design your own scarf or cushion cover or make experimental pieces for patchwork or
embroidery work. Why not get a group of friends together?
This is a beautiful peaceful setting only an hour away from London. In small friendly groups you
will be assured of as much individual attention as you need.
*I will need to charge a bit extra for large quantities of dyeing - though not more than £35 per
person for the day.
Do you belong to a textile guild or group e.g. G.S.W.D.,
embroiderers,
quilters, etc? I can come an give a talk to your group on indigo and
shibori, with or without a follow-up workshop.
