Sunday, December 18 from 9 a.m. – Noon Adults and ages 10+ (with parent) welcome! Would you like to wrap a gift in naturally dyed fabric? Furoshiki has been used for centuries to wrap gifts. In this workshop we will infuse fabric with natural pigment using the bundle dye method. Each participant will create both a large and medium size furoshiki. While our furoshiki bundles steam, we will paint with the dyes and observe how natural modifiers can create a rainbow of colors on paper, paper that can later be used to make cards. This is an excellent workshop to do with a child, although anyone is welcome! Instructor Hayley Haspel-Winick will lead this exploration of bundle dyeing — using flowers and plant-based food scraps to infuse natural pigment into fiber. If you’d like to work on one single project with your child, just purchase one ticket. • Scholarships available • Homeschoolers welcome • Military and sibling discount SOCIAL MEDIA Facebook | Instagram | Twitter
