In ten Saturday workshops from September to June, we design and sew four garments using four natural fibers (cotton, linen, wool, and silk) to create a complete outfit. Over the course of the year we experience different sewing techniques, plant dyeing, and embroidery as we create our own unique fabric and garments.
This workshop is an introduction to the dye plants and dyeing projects that are especially characteristic of the end of summer.
