SUMMARY:Indigo Dyeing with Bea Byrne
DESCRIPTION:Join Bea for open dyeing at WorkshopSF. Guidance will be available for those new to dyeing. Experienced people can dive right in! \nThis is a bring your own fabric/items workshop\, although some blank bandanas and tea towels will be available to purchase. Fabric should be pre-washed and cut to 1/2 yard lengths or smaller. A maximum of 8 items (4 yards of fabric) can be dyed although you may only have time for 6. Cotton and silk ONLY. Synthetics will not dye. You can bring clothing to dye as well as yardage\, and items do not have to be white. \nNeed fabric? Bea recommends Dharma Trading in San Rafael who also have an excellent mail delivery service. https://www.dharmatrading.com/ They have blank tops\, skirts\, bags etc as well as yardage. \nWorkspace\, gloves\, dye vats\, rinsing space\, aprons and items like string and clothes pins will be provided. You are welcome to bring any specialised items you might want to use in your dyeing. You will go home with your damp items in a plastic bag. \nIf the afternoon session sells out (max 10 people) we will add a morning session 10am-1pm. Join the waitlist if places have filled up. \nThe venue is WorkshopSF is a local SF institution that has been teaching people to sew\, dye\, weave\, mold\, embroider and more for more than 15 years. The venue has a bathroom but no kitchen. Attendees are welcome to bring drinks and food with them plus there are local coffee shops and a bodega across the street. Parking is limited street parking and mostly paid\, with fines heavily enforced\, but the area is well served by public transit (address 1310 Haight St). \nThe Teacher \nBea Byrne is a local artist and teacher who teaches Shibori classes (traditional japanese dyeing) at WorkshopSF at least once a month. She is a past President of SF Quilters Guild as well as having co-chaired the 2023 Quilt Show. She is the current Workshops Chair and contributes in other ways to current Guild activities. You can find her at beabyrne.com and on Instagram. Bea is available to teach classes and team building sessions around the Bay Area. \nBea is donating her time and knowledge for the afternoon session. \nTickets \nBuy tickets here. \nTickets are open to members of the SF Quilters Guild ONLY until June 30th. Any remaining tickets after this date will go on general sale. Think about joining today! \nSFQG operates an equity ticket program to help those members facing financial difficulty be able to attend events. No one will know if you buy an equity ticket other than the Workshop Chair. Details about the program can be found here. \nCancellation\, Refund and other policies are here. \nFAQs\n \nDo I need to be a quilter to attend? No\, definitely not. You can dye fabric and clothing or household items for any reason/usage. Bea will instruct anyone not familiar with the technique. \nCan I do batik dyeing? You cannot put anything except clean\, damp fabric in the vats. No wax or any other resist methods as this will create a mess for other dyers.
