Summer Garden Workshops


At 7 St Peter’s Road, Ditton. ME20 6PJ

Weather permitting!

10am – 4pm

£5 per session

Come when you like – stay as long as you like!

Saturday 30th May – Space dyeing with procion dyes

Dyeing with 2 or 3 different coloured dyes in a cat litter tray or an ice cream tub to create bold patterned fabrics.



Saturday 13th June – Indigo and shibori

Shibori is a Japanese method of creating pattern on fabric either by stitching patterns into the fabric before dyeing (to be done in advance from a worksheet), or by folding, wrapping and tieing (to be done at the workshop).




Saturday 11th July – Discharge patterns and Rusting


Discharge paste can be painted or printed onto dyed fabric, allowed to dry and then ironed to partially remove (discharge) the colour to create pattern. Anything that will rust can be wrapped in damp fabric and rust will transfer to the fabric creating marks.


.
Everything provided – just bring fabric and your lunch.
