This two-day workshop will work with dye plants grown at Pine Meadow Ranch and 100% natural fiber yardage. This project pattern is offered in a one-size-fits-most pattern, with adjustability and customization option including: pockets, straps, creative details, and other possibilities. Attendees of this workshop will leave with one finished textile project and a natural dye journal of swatches documenting the interaction between fiber type, dye type, and dye interactions. Workshop Highlights: Creating Color with Natural Dye: Participants will spend the first day harvesting dyestuffs, building dye pots, brewing rich color options, and dyeing their project material. Pattern Design and Customization: Participants will spend the second day sewing their naturally dyed fabric into a functional apron. Using dye samples, participants will be able to customize their design to create a uniquely stylized garment.
