Introduction to Papermaking
taught by Alyssa Sacora/The Patchwork Underground
This workshop will give you hands-on experience working with several pulps to learn the basics of western style mould and deckle papermaking.

You will learn:
• how to process recycled and commercial fibers into pulp at home or in a paper studio
• what tools and equipment are needed for papermaking
• how to pull, press and dry sheets of paper

The day will start with a discussion about papermaking and will explore a variety of handmade paper samples. Afterwards, we will set up vats of pulp and make sheets of paper together. Each participant will take home a stack of sample papers. It’s up to you how you use the finished sheets.

All are welcome. No experience necessary.

Join Green Eyes Dye Studio to discover the craft of natural dyes with flowers and plants. In this 2.5-hour workshop participants will have a brief introduction to natural dyes and the bundle dyeing process. You will learn about the materials, tools, and techniques used and other processes that can be explored using plants as natural dyes. We will cover an introduction to materials and tools, what is needed before dyeing, fabrics, and different flowers and plants that can be used to make a rainbow of color from nature. We will then each create a unique silk 22”x22” scarf using flowers and plants, many homegrown or locally foraged. Participants can discuss more about natural dyes and other dyeing techniques while the pieces steam for 30 minutes. We will then unwrap our creations and share results and ideas!

Workshop will cover:

• Basics of natural dyeing, including fabrics, prep, mordanting and modifiers

• Overview of natural dye plants and how to extract dyes

• How to naturally bundle dye fabric with locally grown flowers and plants

• Each student will create and leave with a bundle dyed 22x22" silk scarf and a summary of information covered at the workshop. Scarf and all supplies included in workshop cost.
