ABOUT THE CLASS

Class Description

Learn the beautiful art of natural dyeing! In this workshop, you'll gain an understanding of how to work with natural dyes from your kitchen scraps and local New Mexican plants. Tutorial videos will show how to create a rainbow of colors from red beets, turmeric, blueberries, and spinach. In self-guided explorations in nature, you will learn what native New Mexico Plant dyes make pigment, such as prickly pear fruits and chamisa. By the end of this workshop, students will feel confident with the process of natural dying, how to mordant wool and cotton fibers, and complete at least 3 naturally dyed textiles.
