The Chosen Palette is an intermediate natural dyeing class for those ready to move beyond single-dye exploration and into intentional color development. This session centers on working with a curated color palette chosen by you, using multiple natural dyes to explore harmony, variation, and depth.

Rather than focusing on one dye, this class invites you to think like a color maker. You’ll learn how different natural dyes relate to one another, how fiber preparation and mordants influence color, and how to build a cohesive palette across several dye baths. The emphasis is on understanding process and decision-making so your results feel purposeful rather than accidental.

Instruction is thoughtful and unhurried, with demonstrations repeated as needed and time built in for experimentation. You’ll work with a selection of natural dyes aligned to your chosen palette and create a coordinated set of dyed samples that reflect both technique and personal color sensibility.

All materials are provided, and you’ll leave with samples, written guidance, and a deeper confidence in working with natural color.
