TURNING POINT, Bethany Garner
We start the week with dyes - and create mountains of beautifully hand dyed and painted fabrics using both FLAT DYE and DYE PAINTED
(thickened dyes) technique. The dyes will remain in the classroom all
week for continuous dye work as the week progresses and time permits
each artist to explore to his/her hearts content! Stay into the evening and make time for stitch work as well!
