by Vrouw Wolle

This workshop is currently not available.

During this 3 days masterclass we will make a sample book with ecoprinted samples of different fabrics: velvet, silk, cotton, linnen and wool. We will experiment with different leaves, mordants and tie dye techniques. We will work very systematically and write down every step of the dye process. The sample book will allow you to plan and carry out bigger printing projects independtly in the future.

The 1st day we will dye the premordant fabrics in welt (yellow tints), cochenille (red tints) or indigo (blue tints). You will learn how to make dye and mordant baths for different fabrics (protein vs. cellulose). We will also introduce you to the basics of eco printing. On day 2 we will experiment further with different eco printing techniques.

The 3th day you can opt for a larger project or you can continue to make new samples.
