Description

Have you heard of Shibori dyeing? Shibori dyeing is a Japanese technique that involves folding, bunching or bundling fabric, binding it, then dyeing it with indigo dye. Join us at B Willow in Remington to talk about the history and technique of different types of Shibori dyeing. Make a beautiful and unique dish towel to take home along with tester fabrics to try out different patterns! Dyeing is a wonderful way to up-cycle old fabrics! You can then use that fabric as a towel, gift wrap, or simply as an elegant decoration in your living space. Caroline Haw is an artist and arts educator from Raleigh, NC. She has been making art since she could hold art supplies, and has a special place in her heart for fiber arts (weaving and natural surface dying), drawing, and painting.
