Dye class: shibori projects!

I haven't mentioned the class i'm teaching this semester yet, because it's all been technical projects so far dealing with the chemistry of different classes of dye, creation of Testfabric multifiber swatch books, color wheels and so forth. But, we've finally moved onto the more artistic section of the class, the units on surface design, so i have some photos to share!

The first of the surface design units is shibori, and the students have really turned out a series of beautiful fabrics in this round.
