The second annual Oakshadow Fiber Fest presents five days of natural dye projects! Each day we’ll explore a different natural dye technique. Whether you attend for just one day or join us for the full week, you’re guaranteed to have a good time!
Each Fiber Fest day is designed as a stand-alone event exploring a specific focus, but each focus will build to contribute color and textile to the culminating sampler project on the final day of Fiber Fest. (You can attend for only day 5 if you wish; I will have extra samples for you to use!) This year our sampler project will be making a small lightning bug drawstring bag.
Day 1: natural dyes
Day 2: indigo and shibori
Day 3: contact prints
Day 4: pigment prints
Day 5: sampler project: lightning bug drawstring bag
All materials are included in Fiber Fest ticket price.
Attendees should wear appropriate clothing and shoes, items that you won’t mind potentially being stained. Bring a pair of rubber gloves and an apron if you like.
Attendees are encouraged to bring a sack lunch. Coffee, tea, water and light snacks will be served.
