Student Project--Natural Dyes

Senior Projects went on display this AM
I mentored one of my art students, Jordan
who chose to investigate natural dyes


Jordan's work is meticulous
and her time management makes me envious
we begun work in the summer
producing dye samples


she made color sample cards for each dye bath


her display included varigated indigo dipped yarn


and also included the basket she wove with walnut dyed reed
as well as a thrifted linen dress and muslin shibori scarf she dyed with indigo

other assorted products of her experimetation
include naturally dyed silk hankies,
and for contrast some dyed with Kool-Aid
with everything resting on an indigo shibori cloth
Jordan was such a pleasure to work with
and this project has been educational for both of us...
I learned quite a lot myself.
