John Marshall Indigo Dying Workshop

“INDIGO” with John Marshall. We will spend three
days with John sharing his knowledge of the dye plant and how we can use the
colorant in several different ways on cloth.
The workshop will be held outdoors in Else Drengler’s garden, Arroyo Grande.
There are no preparations for the class but basic materials like gloves, some
buckets and a pop-up shades will be required and a list will be sent to
participants closer to the date.
Contact Patricia Martin (patwove@aol.com) if you are interested in the
workshop. A list is forming and a drawing for 12 spots will happen at the May
Thursday meeting. If one of those chosen is unable to make it, a “second-
chance” drawing will occur in September.
Fee: $495. Payment is due by May 31.
Some of us are growing indigo. This is for fun and NOT required for taking the
workshop. Other questions? Contact Patricia at patwove@aol.com

All Guild Saturday Meeting

Warping front to back/f-b
Strawbale Barn
10:00-2:00pm
This will be a potluck lunch

Nancy Weber and Denise Schryver will be demonstrating how to warp
front to back.
I’ve had requests for beginning/refresher weaving tips and warping f-b is especially important for using those space dyed warps (a fun way to use this summer’s Saturday warp dye day program) and creating your own design by “shifting” the colors and adding solids.
For more information, contact Denise Schryver

Natural Dyeing Group Activity
2025-09-12, 2025-09-11 13:00 - 16:00 | Patricia Martin’s Studio, 224 Squire Canyon Rd, San Luis Obispo, 93401, United States
This is an opportunity to practice you dyeing skills (not a class). After the Thurs Guild meeting, we will meet at 2pm at Patricia Martin’s Studio (224 Squire Canyon Rd, SLO) to stitch, wrap, scrunch and prepare cloth for dyeing. This first meeting will just be a time to work before the indigo pots get going. We will meet again on Friday to continue working. What to bring: your own materials, fabric, thread, scissors, tools and inspiration/ideas.
The idea is that the group will meet in the afternoon of the guild meeting (if no other guild activity is scheduled) and work on our techniques. The Thursday afternoon will be for prepping (overnight mordanting) so that material is ready for dyeing on Fridays. The group can investigate anything of interest that is part of the natural world (no fiber reactive or acid dyes). Contact Patricia with any questions.
For exact times contact Patricia Martin.
