About this Event

Relax, create, socialize! Explore shibori-style textile dyeing...

Learn the fundamentals of this pattern-making process using bind-and-resist techniques.

You MUST BRING YOUR OWN GARMENT (or two), or set of napkins, two pillowcases , or similar. WHITE 100% cotton, silk, rayon, or linen a must! Check those thrift stores!

Artist Barbara Balkin of Back Gate Studio Boise will lead you step-by-step in compression techniques, using tools to bind and fold the fabric to reveal patterns. At the end of the workshop you'll take home your one-of-a-kind textile(s), and a feeling of accomplishment.

Bring your morning beverage to sip!

Please join us for a relaxing evening creating in a lovely garden setting. Spots are limited. REGISTER NOW to reserve your spot!
