From the organizer:
Hoa Tien Brocade invites you to attend a workshop on creating patterns and dyeing silk scarves using plants with a recognized brocade weaving artisan Sam Thi Tinh, founder of Hoa Tien Brocade.

In this workshop, you will learn about natural dyeing materials, and will be guided to create patterns on silk scarves and dye silk scarves using “chi tu” to make yellow color, and “phang” to make orange color.
