Description

During this workshop, students will learn 5 ways to add resists (ties) to fabric to prepare them for dyes. We will be using Fiber Reactive dyes in this workshop. These dyes need to cure/sit for at least 24hr to ensure that they have permanently adhered to the fabric or garments.

Please arrive early, it's a short 3 hour class and you will get messy for most of it, dress in clothes that you don't mind getting dye or water on. I will have samples for the techniques for you too look at and quick demonstrations on the folds and process of each.

Bring 5 garments (or yards of fabric) composed of at least 50% cotton, rayon or silk. Look at the garment tag to make sure this is the case.

After the class, you'll have the option to take your dyed pieces home to be washed after the 24hr or leave them at the studio to be washed and mailed out or picked up during the week for a fee/postage. You'll leave with the knowledge and skills to go home and do this on your own!

Please Note: Wear apron, comfy clothing and bring food depending on the length of the class.

Refund Policy

Students must cancel within 3 business days of the class to receive a refund less 5% cancellation fee.

In the event that an instructor or the school needs to cancel at the last minute, students will receive a refund less a 5% non-refundable registration fee.

I took this class with my sister--we were both novices. The studio is in the south Bronx, and we parked on the street with no problem. Alex's fiber arts are on display in the studio and he is clearly a talented fiber artist! We brought many dyeable garments/items to the class: sneakers, shirts, beach towels, napkins, and a garland. Alex was enthusiastic and supportive of our ideas, and shared his extensive knowledge with us to help us execute our projects. We ran over the two-hour time allotment, but Alex was fine with that. We thoroughly enjoyed the class, and felt it was great value! Had an early dinner after class at nearby Pio Pio--excellent. We took our wet projects home--won't see the results until tomorrow, but I am optimistic!
