Do you want to try something new and really get into it?

I’ve been teaching Japanese Shibori resist techniques for 7 years and it has been twelve since I learnt it myself at West Dean college. I’ve also visited Japan four times so far to learn new skills from master Shibori and indigo sensei, Bryan Whitehead.

I thought I’d celebrate by offering a really good introduction to Shibori as a bundle so here it is…

You get three online Shibori classes with me and a 2 hour private lesson where I can teach you specific techniques that interest you.

Plus a pack with fabric, thread, needles, marker pen, templates and a bamboo straw for a mini-Arashi Shibori piece as a little extra bonus.

Students are expected to dye their pieces at home with a dye of their choice (not included).

Classes:

Beginners Shibori - Stitching and Binding
Guntai and Makiage Shibori
Hishaki nui Shibori - Stitch on the fold
Private lesson + mini Arashi tutorial

For full details of these classes visit my workshops page.

The kits and private lesson would normally cost £150 and the materials another £30, £180 in total but I’m offering this bundle for just £150, effectively supplying the materials to you for free (postage included).

Pack includes:

6 pieces cotton fabric (picture shows 4 but you’ll get 6)
2 sewing needles
Spool of 50 metres of 60s weight strong bonded nylon sewing thread
1 soluble marker pen (may be air or water soluble and brand may differ from one shown)
Templates for all classes
1 bamboo straw

Classes need to be booked and taken with 1 year of purchase.

On purchase you will be sent an email inviting you to select dates for your classes.
