Join REMUSE Designs for a richly immersive afternoon exploring the craft and consciousness of sustainable plant-based dyeing.
This 3.5-hour masterclass blends tactile technique with creative intuition – a truly hands-on masterclass in colour, resistance, and transformation. You will be guided through traditional and experimental dye methods using botanicals and mineral mordants. Learn how to prepare fabrics, bind and resist with shibori, and coax deep, shifting tones from ingredients like logwood and indigo and food waste/ based dyes such as black bean, turmeric and yellow onion.
Designed for adult learners, fans of sustainability and curious makers, this session invites you to slow down, tune in, and get your hands into the process. Whether you are just starting out or looking to deepen your practise, this class offers practical skills and poetic tools for sustainable making.
Each participant will work with a custom undyed REMUSE scarf and may also bring any natural fibre garment of their own to dye, as well as a take home kit of materials to continue your dyeing journey at home.
I will also share selected garments from her latest REMUSE collection. These pieces act as living swatches and storytelling tools, with the option to browse or purchase any that sing out to you on the day with exclusive discounts for workshop participants with select original pieces available for purchase during the workshop at a discounted rate for attendees on the day.
