DYEING TO SEW
DYEING TO SEW
Dyeing to Sew moves into it’s sixth session. Participants have been from all over the United States. The common thread has been an interest in natural dye processes, paper, cloth, thread, book arts and learning new things while elevating what is known.
The focus will be a continuation for the love of handmade. Learn how to work small, medium or large.
If you have never taken an online class before and want to spend a little time with some big learning opportunities then this is for you.
Dyeing to Sew returns for some Wintery fun!
All skills and techniques covered can be used on a variety of personal handmade works. The items shown for demos can also be created with felted wool, paper and cloth making for fun hands on creating.
