All Materials Included
This is a great day to learn a little bit more about colour and go away with a few metres of fabric to add to your stash. You will go away with 3m of pure cotton and a small piece of silk velvet.
We will begin by talking about colour, the colour wheel and how to dye pieces and keep some clarity of colour. We will use different ways of folding and draping the fabric in the pools of Procion dye.
Includes refreshments
Note: Lunch is not included on the shorter day
