Shibori silk dyeing

This month Jemez Valley Fiber Arts is delighted to have Elizabeth Smith lead a workshop on silk dyeing.  The workshop will run from 10 to 4 on Saturday, April 17th.  Elizabeth will demonstrate the Japanese style of Shibori dyeing.  Each participant will come away with two silk scarves.  The cost will be $30, and materials (approximately $10) will be available for purchase at the workshop.  Each person will need to bring one stainless steel stockpot/dutch oven that will not be reused for food preparation.  Here are some pictures of the scarves Elizabeth will be demonstrating!
