April Show & Share : Spotlight on Jo's Hand Dyes

Jo Holden brought a stack of her hand-dyed fabric for Show & Share this month.
I won't try to explain the techniques, because I'll probably get something wrong ... She uses some traditional shibori techniques, along with parfait, shaving cream marbles, and snow-dyeing. Enjoy this Feast for Your Eyes :
















That's Jo peaking out from behind this pole-wrapped shibori piece.







Jo--anytime you want to offer a workshop, we'll be there!

Member Showcase : The Dyers

Sandy and Theresa attended a Dyer's Workshop at Jo Holden's house a few weeks ago. Here are some of what they created that night :

Sandy said this one was wrapped around a pole ...


This was was folded and bound to create the interesting resist pattern (by Sandy).


Another one from Sandy.



Theresa was also very happy with what she was able to create that night, too. Her technique was more stuff and dump style.
