In this overview of fiber arts, we will cover natural dyeing, chemical dyeing, embroidery, and wet felting. The fiber and threads we dye will be used in embroidery and wet felting projects. Learn techniques and processes for each of these topics and complete several pieces to apply the techniques covered. You will go away with knowledge and resources to do your own natural dyeing with a sample reference booklet, dyed fiber, and embroidery thread used in an embroidery sampler and a wet felted glasses case, and a felted bead necklace.
