Learn the basics of how to transfer color from plants onto fabric.

Learn the basics of transferring color from plants to fabric. In this hands-on workshop, you will create a pot of natural dye to tie-dye a cotton bandana, as well as design a botanically printed silk scarf. The completed bandana and scarf are yours to keep.

You’ll also cover how to prepare fabric for dying, which fabrics take natural dyes best, and discuss plant matter that can be used for natural dyes, many of which may be found in your home or local grocery store.
