In this one-day workshop we will cover the basics of block printing using wood blocks and plant dyes.

Together we will make our own wood block, learn how to create a repeat pattern on cotton bandanas, and create a dye vat using plants from my dye garden. We will also explore mordants and color modifiers and their roll in the process. Participants will receive one organic cotton bandana to print but are welcome to bring silk or cotton fabric from home to use for further experiments. Please contact me in advance for instructions on fabric prep if you plan to bring your own.

We will break for lunch (meal not included but you can count on some light refreshments).
