• 5/5 from Jonathan, attended Feb 2024: Carizza is a great teacher and facilitator. She showed us the various Shibori techniques to use and then encouraged us to explore and experiment on the different materials that were provided. We got to take home a tea towel, two bags, and a few pieces of material. The best part was being able to complete the whole dyeing process during the class. The class was good value, very relaxed and we all had lots of fun.
• 5/5 from Lillian Chen, attended Feb 2024: We enjoyed a wonderful private workshop with Carizza on the weekend. She was very generous with her knowledge and made us all feel relaxed while learning shibori. Most of my friends had never taken a workshop like this before and everyone felt that they all went home with some great dyed pieces…in fact we’re all still talking about it. Perfect for a group of friends to learn new skills and to share memorable experiences.
• 5/5 from Lillian Chen, attended Feb 2024: This was my first Shibori dyeing workshop. It was a real challenge to ignite my creative side. Clarizza made the experience so fun and look so easy to do. She showed us several different techniques to try and we were given several different types of materials to dye including a tea towel, a cotton tote and calico bag. We were also encouraged to bring extra things from home. I brought a linen shirt. The best part was taking each piece out of the dye pot, revealing the pattern and watching the oxidisation process change the colour from green to blue. Good value for money.

• 5/5 from Melanie Wales, attended Feb 2023: Great Shibori workshop with great results! Lovely teacher Carizza told us what we needed to know, answered any questions and guided us to produce beautiful patterns. Plenty of practice pieces of fabric included in the workshop. I also think it was worth taking something extra of you own like a cotton t- shirt. Very enjoyable morning. Melanie

• 5/5 from Dee Vespa, attended Oct 2020: I booked a small private group of 5 girls (age 10) who are all really good friends. They all loved the class and Carizza was an excellent teacher. She showed the girls so many amazing techniques and they all were able to do easily. Carizza was very clear at explaining what to do and very organised. The girls were very inspired and loved unwrapping their fabrics to see their Shibori patterns. We will definitely be coming back to do again and would love to try the screen printing too. Carizza has a lot of experience and is a wonderful teacher and really good with kids too.

• 5/5 from Giordana Brewerton, attended May 2019: The workshop was great fun and well planned. Being able to do a few sample pieces before our own was perfect to ensure we got the technique correct and liked the pattern before hand.

• 5/5 from Carol Annis-Brown, attended Apr 2019: Carizza was an exceptional teacher. She explained the procedure with samples and demonstrations in an easy to catch on manner and we were then able to start creating our own samples, with Carizza on hand to make suggestions and assist. I was amazed at how effortless, she made it all seem. One of the most enjoyable workshops I have ever participated in.
• 5/5 from Anita Turnbull, attended Apr 2019: This class was well organised by Carizza, demonstration pieces and examples, materials, fabric and dye bath ready to go. The teaching space is set up well with work tables, dyeing and drying spaces. Carizza taught techniques that are easy to follow, but the potential for adding greater detail by combining was also explained and more advanced textile samples were on display to inspire us. Carizza is very welcoming and her knowledge of the indigo dyeing process meant that all our questions were answered in detail. It was great fun too and we got to take a range of our pieces home.
