Create permanent prints of real flowers on fabric. Steam draws out each plants unique color and shape, which then becomes a permanent print on the silk. Adding another element: students will be introduced to “dye blankets”. Fiber is immersed in a concentrated dye bath, then laid on top of the scarf before dyeing. Dye blankets pull out different colors from the plants verses when using a plain barrier cloth. Each student will receive one silk scarf. We will cover the natural dye basics (like how to prepare your fibers); an ecoprinting demonstration with a dye blanket demonstration.
