This will be a celebration to mark the great success of this best selling natural dye book,

"Botanical Inks, Plant-To-print Dyes, Techniques & Projects", published by Quadrille Books.

Translated into French, German and Chinese; Featured in Vogue magazine and sold through all major bookstores.



I'm proud to know that Botanical Inks can be found in most British Universities' libraries and is a staple guidebook for countless natural dyers.



It's been reworked into a smaller book, "Botanical Dyes: Plant-To-Print dyes, Techniques & Projects" ,

which is great for gifting, and can travel with you for foraging & creative retreats;

With a new name, some beautiful new dye recipes and fresh techniques to try out!



We are delighted to have friends New Dawn Traders joining us to serve exquisite, sail-cargo shipped drinks from their latest voyage!



This event is being generously hosted by friends at the beautiful Southcombe Barn.



Please RSVP HERE to confirm attendance!



It excites me beyond belief to see a tangible cultural shift happening,

back to traditional natural dyeing, in the education system, industry and smaller scale makers.



I look forward to celebrating with you!

With much warmth,

Babs :) x
