Ombre Dying
Leader: Gina Kirkorian Ingham
Make your own hand dyed original two toned fabrics at the 100th Monkey Studio. This class will go over the basics of Ombre dying, which is a certain technique that leaves you with a fabric that is multipe toned and looks beautiful. Ombre is a french word meaning “to shade” and is often used to describe a Dip Dye effect given to fabric where the shades of color graduate from light to dark. We will start with the basics, and work our way up to using multiple colors on one piece of fabric. We will start with a simple cotton to get our technique down. Then we will move on to different types of fabrics, learning how each one takes the dye a little differently. Then we can make larger fabric pieces out of linen that could be clothing, a table runner, pillow cases, curtains or just gorgeous hand dyed fabric that you can use for anything! The results are stunning, and you can use this technique to dye or decorate just about anything!
