Debbie MaddyI love fabric, sewing—and quilters! I design patterns for quilts that are visually stunning but easy to make.

Shibori & Indigo Dying
April 23, 2016 | 9 am – 3:30 pm
Price: $89 plus $25 Kit Fee paid the day of class.
Take a Saturday to learn stunning shibori fabric techniques including stitching, clamping and pole wrapping for use in indigo dye. We will set up and use a pre-reduced indigo vat or vats to dye cotton and silk fabrics that have been manipulated using these techniques. Dramatic results can be achieved with simple folds and clamps. This is the true Japanese “Tie & Dye” not your typical tie dyed t-shirts.
