2026 Retreat Class Requests

Embroideries, sewing, dyeing, printing, eclectic collage type fiber art, upcycling
I would love a sit and chat and spin, lucet, hand tool time. some shibori dyeing, and show/tell things people made or found.
Using yarn for unconventional art applications.
I want to learn to crochet
Tunisian crochet and Sashiko
I am interested in lace making like tatting or bobbin lace, making nets (like knots for fishing nets), and different types of weaving besides backstrap or rigid heddle, or different techniques of spinning yarn. Maybe a hand carding class. I would love to learn hot to felt a hat. Sorry for the long reply.
I’m super excited to learn natural dyeing and more weaving techniques! All the activities mentioned sound interesting as well. : )
Rug making
teaching options: Anything narrow band (Inkle, Card, or Backstrap) weaving
learning / practicing: I’d love to work on Sprang… either someone please teach, or I’ll figure out a beginners class and we can all dive in
Shobori dyeing (I have a couple of t-shirts if that’s okay).
Ecoprinting
I would love to learn how to dye fabric, knit, spin, and crochet.
Perhaps engraving, metal or wood. Open to anything however
Natural dyeing
Dying techniques, not sure, ive never been to one of these. The only thing that comes to mind is Kinusaiga (where you used scrap pieces of fabric to create a photo) but I’m not sure if this is the kind of feedback you are looking for
how to marble paper, also maybe doing nature prints on solar reactive paper. I saw an article on that where you can use turmeric. Other than that, I am open! I also like being able to play on a drum carder.
