Shibori is an ancient Japanese natural dye technique which uses binding, stitching, folding, twisting and compressing cloth to create beautiful blue patterns. In this workshop, participants will explore the ancient technique, learn how to mix a dye bath, watch a dyeing demonstration, and create their own unique dye patterns by using various resist techniques on cloth. Fabric pieces will be provided for each participant, however students are encouraged to bring 1-3 pieces of cloth they would like to dye of their own. *Keep in mind Shibori is best done on natural fabrics such as silk, hemp or cotton.
