Deck This is a single session class with a focus on using wax as a design resist. Artists use substances on textiles to temporarily "resist" dye to create patterns and interest. This workshop explores the use of wax as a resist. Participants will use fabric dyes on silk fabric and learn how to apply wax in layers to create unique hand painted designs. We will use some everyday and some not-so-traditional tools to achieve subtle, sophisticated effects. These beautiful creations can stand on their own and be framed or incorporated into other works such as quilt blocks or pillow fronts. Come have some fun, stretch your imagination and create art cloth. Dyes and silk fabric will be provided. Students should bring rubber gloves and Wear old clothes to class.

DYEING AND HAND PAINTING YARN SKEINS OR WARPS In love with color and have a fondness for those expensive, luxury yarns? Knitting, weaving, crochet, embroidery and quilting all come to life with hand painted threads. Perfect class regardless of your fiber addiction. Recycle yarn and/ or create your own hand painted works . Tammy covers the basics of working with fiber-reactive dyes and provide the "recipe" at the beginning of the session. Need help with color? She will help. We supply work space and the dye. Bring your yarn, floss or sewing thread in skein form, pre-measured warps or even loose knit fabrics for unraveling. Total weight per session is 16oz. Fiber content should be bamboo, tencel, hemp, linen, cotton, rayon or silk (blends of these, okay too but, please, no acrylic, polyester, nylon, though). (*Yarn is available for purchase through the design center!) Choke ties should be looser so they don't act as a resist when the yarn is wet and swollen. Please feel free to ask Tammy about your prep prior to class. Students should wear old clothes to class and bring 1 sheet of clear or white plastic large enough to wrap each yarn put-up, a plastic tub to carry your wet plastic wrapped yarn and rubber gloves. DON'T WANT TO DYE AT HOME? REPEATERS WELCOME Various skeins of different fiber content, size and textures yarns are available for purchase in our Design Center. (please call 630-963-9573 or email to help us select a day/date that works for you)
