Join me to forage for natural dyes on the South Downs & make your own natural dye recipe book as well as a larger piece to take home with you. You will learn how to identify seasonal dye plants that are growing on these beautiful chalk uplands, make up a wide range of dye baths and use mordants & after baths to create a wonderful range of patterns & colours.
In 2024 I’ll be running two 2 day workshops which will happening on the 20th/21st April and 3rd/4th October
The workshop takes place in beautiful Wiston Village Hall, West Sussex and gives you the chance to explore the fields, hedgerows & woods of this lovely part of Sussex. All materials are provided as well as a simple veggie lunch. I keep student numbers low – there is only ever 6 students on my workshops
Ps Here’s what previous students have said about this workshop:
Sarah is a fantastic tutor and shared so much of her knowledge
I came away feeling like I had learnt something completely new & worthwhile
I can’t wait to start experimenting with natural dyes now I’ve completed this fantastic course.
