Mushroom Plant Dyed Quilt Blocks–Forage to Finish @ John C. Campbell Folk School


  • John C. Campbell Folk School One Folk School Road Brasstown, NC, 28902 United States (map)

I am thrilled to be co-teaching this class with my friend and mentor, Judilee Fitzhugh. Please join us on an adventure from forest to finish as you create traditional Appalachian quilt blocks using fungi and locally foraged dye plants! Taking inspiration from pioneer dyers Jim Liles and Miriam Rice, learn to forage and process your finds into dye baths and pigments. Explore various methods for dyeing and printing to produce compelling designs on cotton fabric, which you will sew into quilt blocks. All levels welcome.
