Recent reviews of Fabric Dyeing Class: Indigo Dye

  • 5/5 from Taletta Wibmer, attended May 2026: The class was informative and fun. Lots of good ideas for creating designs.
  • 5/5 from Drew Runner, attended Mar 2025: We had such an amazing time that we talk about this workshop at least once a day now. There was such a tremendous amount of creativity in the way you could dye your projects that we've got an overload of ideas to dye dozens of garments! 100/10, would recommend.
  • 5/5 from Taletta Wibmer, attended Mar 2025: In the Indigo Dying class, we explored design possibilities and tried them out. Studying what created, I look forward combining techniques and trying the ideas out next time. I will again bring some additional cotton pieces.
  • 4/5 from Lisa Petek, attended Dec 2024: Had a lot of fun! Only thing that could’ve made it better would have been to learn something about the shibori tradition and the indigo dye itself. Would recommend to others, though!
  • 5/5 from Kari Fadler, attended Oct 2024: This was a great way to begin working with indigo without having to handle the chemistry of it. I was expecting more information on mixing up a vat. However, with only two hours, focusing entirely on the dyeing process rather than the preparation gave participants experience with the fun part. I would absolutely recommend this class.
  • 5/5 from Lauren Maier, attended Oct 2024: I took the indigo dye class. It was at Monster-Monster on Market St.NW. It has a class space in the back of their fun store. Very nice owner and instructor- would enjoy another class there. Love the day time classes.
  • 5/5 from Ellen Liang, attended Oct 2024: This was a lot of fun, I was surprised how much we accomplished in two hours. Melissa and Rosalie were very helpful and patient. They provided everything we needed, including tea towels, gloves and aprons, but also encouraged us to bring extra items to dye. I learned new techniques I hadn't seen before; just wish I had more time to experiment. Definitely worthwhile and good value!
  • 5/5 from Denise Luenow, attended Jun 2024: Melissa was welcoming and gave great instructions for a variety of indigo dye techniques. Supplies were varied and plentiful. It was a really fun class and I highly recommend it! So fun that I bought an Indigo dye kit to use at home!
