hand dyeing workshops
"Just wanted to say we had a great time at the dyeing workshop on Saturday. You had everything so well organized and everyone was so helpful. And the lunch and drinks were excellent. I was very happy with my fabric when we left on Saturday, but after I washed it I was even more excited about it. It turned out so terrific! I am busy looking for just the right quilt pattern for it. Anyway, I am really hooked on this dyeing business. So, the next time you have a workshop, please let me know. Thanks again." A comment from a participant at 2007's hand dyeing workshop
