Dip Into Shibori Fabric Dyeing

Immerse yourself in the colors and patterns of Shibori fabric dyeing, one of the oldest Japanese dyeing techniques, dating back to over 1300 years. Folding, clamping, and stitching the fabric before dying creates dynamic patterns and designs. Author and expert dyer, Lynn Koolish, shares the Shibori dyeing techniques and tricks she learned throughout the years through precise instructions and demonstrations.

It doesn’t matter if you are a beginner or you’ve dyed fabric before, you’ll come away from this Shibori class with new fabric dyeing skills and a stack of unique fabrics you can use in quilts or other fiber art projects. Lynn guides you through basic dyeing instructions, how to mix and apply Procion fiber-reactive dyes, and shows you easy Shibori techniques that are guaranteed to produce spectacular results. With any color selections your heart desires, you will create unique hues and shapes that transform your art into a one-off piece.
