The lure of indigo is strong — the classic blue and white combination found in  many Japanese textiles is cool, crisp, and so appealing. 

CLASSIC, COOL BLUE AND WHITE PAIRED WITH MODERN DESIGN 

From classic kimonos to denim jeans, indigo has been used by many cultures for dyeing cloth, and the Japanese  have refined the use of indigo to an art form. This is the class to use all those lovely blue and white shibori fabrics  you’ve dyed yourself, or use carefully curated blue and white fabrics from your stash. 

Each participant will develop a simple geometric block design based on unfolded origami shapes, set a theme and  create variations, and combine them into the beginning of a fresh and modern mini quilt top.
