Eco Dyeing Workshop
Eco dyeing is an age-old technique of making marks and patterns on textiles that is kind to the environment. Moreover, it is a respectful way of communing with nature and humanity. This practice promotes a zero waste lifestyle, and a do no harm attitude.
Come and join me for a magical day practising the meditative art of slow-stitching and eco dyeing. We will be using new, recycled and food waste to create beautiful and functional pieces that are easy on the environment.
​
We will connect with nature and ourselves and use these elements as a reflection on cloth which we will make into a functional piece ideal for Furoshiki...Furoshiki is a traditional Japanese wrapping cloth that is used to wrap all sorts of objects, often in elaborate shapes. In Japanese culture, furoshiki functions as a method of communication, with its many knots and ties representing the ties between people.
