Harmony loves sharing her passion for indigo dying and Shibori techniques. She has taught indigo dyeing workshops at Pacifica gardens a nature-education center, and facilitated private group classes. I began natural dyeing in my young 20’s when I became dedicated to finding sustainable and eco friendly options for my children’s clothing. In the last eight years I have fallen in love with variety of beautiful blues that indigo dye offers us! Indigo dye has primarily been used in Asia and India dating back many centuries.

Natural dyeing is found in all cultures around the world and is one of the oldest art forms. With utmost respect for the heritage of this plant and dyeing techniques originating in Japan, it is an honor to share the knowledge I have learned and educate others from a place of transparency.

Harmony will be sharing Indigo and Shibori Dyeing.
