Discover the ancient and beautiful Japanese art of Shibori! In this hands-on workshop, you’ll dive into the world of natural dye processes and learn how to create stunning, unique patterns on fabric using indigo dye.

Guided by expert instructor Sarah Lacey, you will explore various resist-dyeing methods—including folding techniques and the use of wooden blocks—to craft your own beautiful floral and geometric designs. You'll leave the session with your own custom-dyed fiber pieces to take home.
