Fiber artists, quilters, and sewists will enjoy this opportunity to design and create your own fabrics filled with color, mark, and pattern. In this workshop, we will experiment with natural dyeing, shibori indigo dyeing, and block printing. At the end of the workshop, there will be time for independent work and discussion on possibilities for using the dyed and printed fabrics in functional or artistic works.

What you will learn:
1. Design elements of pattern, mark, repetition, and composition in surface design
2. Binding and folding techniques for creating pattern in indigo and natural dyeing
3. How to design and carve a linoleum block for motif printing.
4. Potential uses of their dyed and printed fabrics for functional or artistic works.
