Eco-printing and shibori ecourse

In Leaf and String, we will be combining eco-printing with both traditional and experimental shibori techniques, to create complex patterns on clothing and fabric.

This course is 4 weeks long, and each week you will learn 2 techniques for combining shibori and eco-printing. You will be encouraged to ‘choose your own adventure’ – each lesson is just a starting point, and you will be able to choose which fabric, mordants, leaves and dyes to combine, to create your own individual results. There will be suggestions each week for variations to try.

Hi, I am the artist and maker behind Gumnut Magic. I love sharing my techniques and tips for getting beautiful, clear eco-prints on cotton, wool and paper.

Eco-printing is a practise that has given me so much:

A way to connect with the land around me.

A way to be creative that is earth-friendly and sustainable.

And the deep bliss and magic of unwrapping each fabric bundle to reveal the colours and textures left by those particular leaves.

I really enjoy introducing people to this magic through my ebooks and ecourses. You can see more of my work at www.gumnutmagic.com
