Colour your World with Felted Shibori

Saturday, 18^th & Sunday 19^th May Tutor: Rae Woolnough

(as featured on Channel 74 ME)

Shibori is tie-dying – creating patterns by using a resist and then overdyeing. We will hand dye silk fabric as a base cloth then nuno felt onto the silk, and finally ‘Shibori’ the felt to make jewellery, wearables and artworks. This workshop, while exploring advanced techniques, is still suitable for people with little experience of felting or dyeing as step by step guidance will be given. Cost $150, 10 – 4 each day, email or phone for details.

Waiting list only
