In this Masterclass learn to dye using natural dyes and the fibers that accompany them. Textile artist and natural dyer Hilary L Hahn takes you through the premise of natural dyeing.
This class focuses on dyes that can be derived from the natural world by foraging.
Ever thought about the colors of avocado pits & skins?
Onion skins or eucalyptus.
Many splendid colors can be derived from nature and used on our everyday products.

Ever wondered how to get interesting repeats on fiber? In this 50 minute Masterclass, I demonstrate 3 of my favorite ties and binds. One I learned on a trip to Arimatsu, Japan and the other I learned from the artisans of Kutch, Gujarat. A final motif, is a modern favorite.
I also share a bonus cloud pattern. To recap, you will learn 4 patterns in all!! If you have ever wanted someone to guide you through the nuances of shibori. This is great place to start.
