natural dyeing day with japanese visitors

 Recently I spent the day At Nandroya Studio with a group of Japanese visiting craft ladies. Joy had prepared a workshop on natural dyes from Tasmania. We used native cherry with  three different mordents. These were alum, copper and iron.

 Joy had even created a wonderful sample card . It was a great day and a lot was learnt by everyone. Joy has such fantastic knowledge about dyes and weaving and is a fantastic host and teacher.
