HAND DYED ROVINGS - what a delight to be able to create YOUR OWN palette of colours on rovings for your project work this winter!

I will be providing the sample wool for the dyeing of the roving in the classroom (included in the fee for the class) and you may bring additional wool or alpaca roving for dye work at this 6 hour workshop in the Activity Room at the TETT.

The colouring of wool roving is magical  -as the Dye is simply drawn up and into the fibres of wool and immediately brings visual, excitement and joy to the dyers. The process is simple and not difficult to remember for at home practice following the workshop...

Do look at your calendar and see if Sunday February 10th is open and would allow you the fun of creating a beautiful palette of fibre for your arts projects,,, spinning, weaving and fibre arts.

Hope you will come along and bring a friend!

FOLLOW-UP...

I LOVED working with a terrific group of fifteen arts students at the TETT Centre this past Thursday evening - and we had the best results ever in a MARBLING CLASS - such great enthusiasm and true arts savvy displayed in the trays of carrageenan as the artists (some who have never created ANY artwork) worked their way through prints on the surface of thickened seaweed and applied the DHARMA TRADING Marbling Paints... Awesome!





Join me at the TETT Centre for Creativity and Learning for a full day of dye play on Sunday February 10th - all levels of experience welcome. I will be taking Dye Workshop participants through all of the steps for preparing and
