Finding the Color Growing Around You: Local Natural Dyes
with Nancy Taylor

May 19, 2018:  Modern weavers have access to an astounding range of commercial colors, but what if you could only use color that comes from plants growing in your yard and nearby fields and forests? What would your local palette be? Many plants, of course, give no color at all, but Indiana has a wonderful range of plants that surprise us with exciting results. Local dyeing is fun, not at all intimidating, and can result in a great collection of colors. All you need is a big pot, a few techniques, an attitude of exploration and adventure, and a willingness to work with whatever colors you get. We'll have lots of examples and instructions.
Nancy Taylor has taught weaving, dyeing and fiber arts at Earlham College for well over 30 years, and every year she learns more from her students.
