WE TOOK A VOTE

The class schedule said we would sew the last two weeks, but the consenses option is we would rather continue to paint and do our sewing at home.


DO NOT BRING YOUR SEWING MACHINE!!!!!  

WE WILL CONTINUE TO PAINT FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS.  



The next session of classes starts on Wednesday March 4 and we will be dyeing (as opposed to painting).  I am ordering handwoven cotton scarves from Dharma for us to do parfait dyeing on the first day.  The materials fee will be $20 and cover the cost of the cotton scarves plus dyes.  We haven't done cotton scarves yet so why not!  You will be providing your own fabric or scarves for the rest of the class.  I will bring both acid dyes for silk and Procion MX for cotton or rayon after the first day.  That way you can choose what fabric you want to use.  We will do Microwave dyeing,  ice dyeing, parfait dyeing, shibori, and a few other techniques.
If you are newer to the class you may want to just work on scarves to try the different techniques.
