Intro to Natural Dyeing

Explore a range of colours using vegetable and plant dyes such as turmeric, madder, onion skins and logwood on this one day natural dyeing workshop.

During the session, you will learn about using dyes to dye cottons, silk & wool and will create your own technical colour chart of small fabric samples (swatches) using the different dyes.

Tutor Kirstie Williams is a local textile artist and printmaker who works with various print techniques such as screen printing, cyanotypes, linocut and textile dyeing and printing.

This is ideal for complete beginners in fabric dyeing. Those who already have a creative practice, especially one focused around working with textiles, may benefit from learning about the natural dyeing process.
