Message: Good afternoon! Your website is terrific!!! I am just getting my feet wet in the area of textile dyeing. I couldn't help but notice that you are in the Houston area. Can you recommend a studio/shop/? that gives lessons in dyeing (batik, tie dye, shibori)? Thanks so much for your time and your fabulous website.

No, I don't know much about local sources for dyeing lessons. However, I have seen some notices posted at Texas Art Supply on Montrose, which might be worth looking into.

You should also be sure to check out the Houston International Quilt Festival, which often sponsors workshops on this subject; the 2004 International Quilt Festival will take place November 4-7, 2004, with classes beginning on November 1.
