Patriotic Shibori

Using items you have around the house and yard, as well as special templates, you can recreate stunning Japanese Itajime Shibroi designs. You can also venture out and try new things as you plan out and create your own fat quarters in this class full of “What if?”. Each student receives 12 fat quarters to dye with options to dye them all one color or add in a second color. Additional colors would be available for purchase. Students can bring in items they’ve found at home such as marbles, popsicle sticks, and dental floss, etc to see exactly “What if I use…?” can turn into. Each student will also be given acrylic resists in different shapes to use as well. We’ll go over what different folds will create, the way shapes will play out on the fabric, and best items to get the job done.

$90 covers 3 yards (12 fat quarters) of PFD fabric, kit of chemicals, dye, resists, and accessories for dying. Additional resists and kits will be available for purchase day of. Don't quilt? You can bring in 3-4 clothing items that are %100 cotton if you wish to dye them instead of the fabric!
