Seasonal Dyeing with local plants on silk and wool

Join me for a series of workshops on dyeing with local plants through the seasons. We will explore how to successfully dye with plant-based materials that can be gathered locally through the seasons. We will cover such things as how to prepare fibres for dying, modifying colours and how to gather and store materials for dying. We'll be dyeing with leaves, flowers and roots so there'll be plenty of exposure to different methods of extracting dye.

Everyone will receive samples of wool that we've dyed in the workshop and there'll be the opportunity to buy silk scarves that can be dyed in the workshop and taken home.

Each session is 2 hours long and you can sign up for one session or for all. Each workshop is ?40, ?140 if you book all four in advance.

Friday 2 March 13:30 - 15:30: Introduction to dyeing and dyeing with winter plants

Friday 18 May 13:30 - 15:30: Dyeing with spring plants

Friday 13 July 13:30-15:30: Dyeing with high summer plants

Friday 14 September 13:30-15:30: Dyeing with autumn plants and preparing for winter

The sessions take place at the Rosendale Allotment Community Space, 227 Rosendale Road, London SE21 8LR

  @Jenijenjen I assure you we are always polite and friendly too! Which is why the behaviour we have been receiving is so frustrating. The kids always leave her with a “Thank you have a lovely day” Our concern is leaving the gate slightly wedged doesn’t stop the action of slamming it open and closed…still leading to damage

  If you're talking about who I think you are, I find them more exuberant than rude and usually smiling and polite. But then, I'm usually smiling and polite to them. Can you not wedge open your gate when you're expecting them?

  It worked. Corbyn did similar although not to the same degree. Momentum had a purge too when Corbyn got in. All his political life he opposed the EU but when it came to the crunch he publicly backed them during the referendum. I believe that was to appease the middle classes that he was appealing to. He messed up big time when wooing the middle classes at Glastonbury whilst ignoring his core working class voters up north. They also happened to be leave voters. He got starstruck and forgot about his politics. Corbynmania was thing, a movement but it was also the making of his downfall. For the many and not the few came back and slapped him right in the face.

  Nothing to do with the tories overspending whatsoever eh! Blame the last 10/11 years of blatant mismanagement, incompetence and willful deceit on the poor bastards that were left with the fall out of a complete car crash tory government. One PM after another falling on their sword. Open corruption and piss taking throughout covid and a legacy of huge debt and destruction yet in your view it will be labour's 4 years in power that bankrupts us in 2029. Another one that must think people are blind and stupid. Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃
