In this creative class we'll learn some fun techniques for dyeing silk using safe dyes and simple tools. Students will explore ice-dyeing, marbling, resist dyeing and more as they add color and visual texture to several squares of silk fabric. We'll then use their unique fabrics to make some fun projects. We'll also touch on basic color theory, mixing colors, and how colors play together.
