Eco Dyeing Workshop at ClayMotion, Ballarat Victoria
I LOVE eco dyeing, so decided to incorporate it into the workshop schedule at ClayMotion, and last Saturday was our first workshop, and it was fantastic with some superb results.
We eco dyed silk scarves with a range of botanicals from my garden including lemon leaves, red flowering gum, wattle, camelias, lavender and either string or rusty wire for binding.
The workshop had seven paticipants and they were a great bunch, and we produced some terrific colouring and patterns.
They enjoyed the workshop so much, they want more! So next year (I know – where did the year go!) I will be offering this beginners workshop and another workshop were we might explore vegetable dyeing, or dyeing on other fabrics such as cotton or linen – its in the planning phase – so stay tuned by subscribing the NEWSLETTER, or follow ClayMotion on FACEBOOK and INSTAGRAM, and be sure to visit the ENROLMENTS page for all the info on upcoming classes and workshops.
So, without further ado, here are some pics from yesterdays workshop!
Thanks Dawn, I had a really lovely Saturday afternoon at the eco-dyeing workshop. It was fun!
