Learn how to create beautiful botanical prints at this introductory workshop on eco-printing where we will explore the technique of dyeing and printing fabrics with native plants. We’ll discuss the processes of mordanting natural fibers, selecting plants, constructing and steaming bundles, and the use of iron, tannin, and natural dye carrier blankets to enhance your prints.
By the end of the workshop, you will leave with all the knowledge necessary to use these techniques to produce your own one-of-a-kind botanical prints on fabrics or paper.
