Week 3 - All Things with Fabric and Botanical Prints

This week the boys and girls were super productive - Working with the dyes created last week, the children created books and used the dyes to colour the paper on the books - then we put some fabric in the dyes to soaked for the next week and lets see what happens.  




Squeezing out the plants from the dyes to remove.


Creating a paper book and using the dyes on paper.




All the books created by the children are here - finished 


Some children already write and drawed in their books!


Next we collected some wild plants outside to use for our Cyanotypes Prints. 


Each person created a lovely print design


We will leave these for a few hours - because we have no sunshine today,

Each of the jars now has piece of fabric in it soaking for the week.


Excited to see if the dyes work on the fabric. 




Some of the final Cyanotopes..

A Very Productive class today!!
