Join us for a hands-on workshop where we’ll explore the art of transferring vibrant colors from locally gathered plants onto fabric! Using an array of fresh leaves, flowers, and plant materials, we’ll unlock the beauty of nature’s palette. Not only will you create stunning prints from the leaves, but you’ll also discover how to produce unique, abstract designs that are one-of-a-kind.
Feel free to bring your own leaves or flowers from your neighborhood to experiment with, and we’ll dive into the fascinating world of natural dyes, exploring both the process and the history of this ancient art. By the end of the workshop, you’ll have your very own hand-dyed cotton bandana, ready to take home and wear!
This class will be taught as a part of the Farm to Fabric: A Montana Fiber Journey event hosted by Montana Fibershed. This class will occur at the Missoula County Fairgrounds. Register directly at Farm to Fabric event page.
