About the course

Dyeing your own fabric can give new purpose to some of the food scraps you may have at home! In this course I will provide you with everything you need to know about how to begin your own natural fabric dying process by walking you through how I made four different dye baths out of avocado pits & skins, strawberry tops & red onion skins, coffee grounds, and turmeric. We will go over what materials you will need, what colors you can create, and a few different folding patterns to make beautifully dyed masterpieces!
