- Program: “Fabric Dyeing – Shibori & Beyond (Fabrics You’ll Dye Over!)”
- Speaker: Jane Vineyard, Lifestitched; Wichita, KS
In October get ready to be wowed by our own KLQ member Jane Vineyard of Lifestitched longarm quilting located in Wichita, KS. Jane is not only a longtime member but has also served on our board in charge of Membership for the past several years. In her spare time (what?!) she works at A-1 Sewing Center, so she brings a wealth of information to share with us.
In this inspiring presentation, “Fabric Dyeing – Shibori & Beyond (Fabrics You’ll Dye Over!),” explore the art of fabric dyeing, with a focus on Shibori—a resist-dye technique where folding, twisting, and binding fabric creates beautiful, unexpected patterns with Indigo Dye.
A wide variety of other dyeing approaches will be discussed, including:
- Fabric dyed with and without folding
- Single-color dye techniques
- Non-Shibori folding styles for unique designs
- How different dyes produce different results
- Where to buy some products
Jane will share a range of finished samples, along with the tools and products she uses, so guests can see exactly how each technique comes together.
Whether new to dyeing or ready to expand skills, this workshop will leave viewers inspired and excited to create one-of-a-kind fabrics.
