Alchemy of Color (3-day Workshop)

Blue Light Junction is excited to share a new workshop series on quilting with naturally dyed fabric. 

Teaching artist, quilter, and natural dyer Rosina Saqib is offering a two-part workshop series:

Alchemy of Color and Quilting Foundations.

In the first part of the series, students will create a palette of multi-dimensional autumnal color, gaining a deep understanding of the relationship between tannins, mordants, dyes, exhaust baths, and post-dye modifiers on cellulose (plant) fiber.
Using cutch as our primary dye material, we will create a range of tones from cinnamon to chocolate brown to caramel and peach. Participants will also learn how to set up a dye kitchen at home to continue their exploration with natural dyes and their potential.
