Botanical Bundle Dyeing and Extraction Workshop
Learn How to Utilize Plant Color Alchemy!
With Victoria Larnach
Join us for a journey of plant alchemy color from Mother Nature! We will be bundle dyeing with seasonal plants & compost scraps from the kitchen & garden, creating various surface designs & pigment color on select fabric.
Participants will learn different methods of extracting color from plants & flowers, as we explore a natural palette as an alternative to chemical dyeing, while addressing issues and challenges around sustainability within the textile industry.
Each participant will leave with dyed samples & several unique, ready-to-wear project pieces. Come see what’s available in the world of color around us!
