Step into a stunning pocket of Japan in Hepburn Springs in Central Victoria and enjoy a day immersing in the wonderful world of Japanese eco-dyeing!
Learn how to use handcrafted Japanese Bengala dyes with Prue Simmons from Dyeing To Weave Studio, the only official Australian teacher and distributor of these amazing earth dyes from Japan.
In this hands-on class, you will learn about the rich history of Bengala dyes in Japan along with traditional and contemporary shibori techniques and play with the subtle earthy colours of these handcrafted mud dyes in this fun and engaging five hour workshop.
You'll also be able to dine on delicious chef-prepared Japanese cuisine for lunch and take in the zen surroundings of the traditional Japanese styled inn called Shizuka Ryokan in the heart of Spa Country in Central Victoria (just 75 minutes from Melbourne), during this incredible day at the dye pots.
By the end of this class, you will take home your two dye projects, as well as fond memories of this amazing day!
Prue Simmons is a passionate SAORI weaver and natural dyer, with a deep love and knowledge of Japanese crafts and culture.
From her many years living and exploring Japan, Prue now shares her knowledge of Japanese SAORI weaving and beautiful dye practises in her studio and through online courses and kits.
Prue first discovered the creativity of SAORI weaving whilst living in the mountains of Japan in 2007. SAORI is a freestyle form of Japanese weaving that allows the weaver to create freely at the loom using colour and texture rather than following a designated pattern, enabling them to tap into their true creative spirit with this mindful meditative craft.
Prue loves introducing people to this simple, fun and meditative craft and empowering people to create their own textiles on the SAORI loom, to easily make unique clothing and soft furnishings for the home.
Dyeing To Weave Studio is one of only three accredited global SAORI studios here in Australia, where Prue specialises in teaching this freestyle form of Japanese weaving and Japanese natural dye such as Indigo and hand-crafted Bengala dyes.
Dyeing To Weave studio os based in the charming historic township of Clunes, Victoria, and classes are held in venues in Bendigo, Ballarat, Clunes and Melbourne.
