Join me in the beautiful Hill Country of Texas at the Hill Country Arts Foundation for a day exploring Indigo and Shibori! The Hill Country Arts Foundation is located in a beautiful setting on the Guadalupe River, and is truly one of my favorite places to teach.

Participants will first learn how to dye natural fiber goods with indigo and how to maintain vats for longest lasting color. Participants will learn several resist and shibori techniques, with a concentration on folded, tied and clamped resist. 

The instructor will provide a yard of fabric per student for experimentation, but participants should bring their own goods to dye. Goods from home should be made from natural fibers, and cellulose (cotton, linen, rayon) accepts color best. Pre-wash all fabric in hot water before the workshop. 

Participants should wear old clothing that can be stained, including shoes, or bring an apron. Participants should bring a pair of rubber gloves with a high sleeve, like dishwashing gloves.
