Spring Retreat 2020: Dyeing to Stitch

   This time around, our focus will be on Japanese Shibori Dyeing with Procion Dyes. Once the dyeing is done, we will move onto Color, Design, and Composition using the amazing fabrics we created as either a background, foreground, or both to create a wallhanging/art piece. The last day will be spent adding either hand or machine stitching to your piece. Most materials will be provided.

We will do an in depth exploration of how I create my art.
