Embellishing Your Cotton With Custom Cyano Prints
Half-Day Workshop
1 pm - 4 pm, Thursday, September 17
Cyano printing is a unique method to personalize cotton fabric. It utilizes Prussian Blue which is a light sensitive natural dye and a type of "resist" dyeing technique. Historically, this dye was used in early photography to produce prints. This class will cover preparing the fabric and dye, various techniques to produce desired effects, and finishing. Each class participant will leave with a notebook of information and samples produced in class.
All Levels
Required class kit, $10 payable to the instructor in class, includes all cotton and chemicals used to make prints. Notebook of information.
Students to Provide
Students should bring a variety of small objects up to and including pressed flowers, leaves, and even small sewing notions.
They should also plan to wear a dye apron.
