Diny Warren

Fabric Artist

Diny Warren has been involved with Fibre Art for many years. Her experiences include Spinning, Weaving, knitting and Dyeing.

Dyeing has been an natural step for many artists when not being able to find the suitable colour for a project. Once Diny opened that door she found the path to using Indigo to create different blues too difficult to resist.

Dyeing with natural Indigo has been an ancient worldwide practice. It is completely different from other dye methods. The various processes that can be used-are numerous and fascinating. The learning of it all can never be exhausted even if your vat might.

Hope you will be able to come and enjoy “ For the Love of Indigo”
