San Diego Craft Collective, 2590 Truxtun Rd., Studio 106, SD 92106 • 619/273.3235 • make@sandiegocraft.org

This workshop is held outdoors, so we suggest:
• Dress in layers, bring a jacket, hat, apply sunscreen (if needed) so you can adjust to the weather.
• Bring water/beverage.
• Bring an apron or wear comfortable clothes that can get messy.
• Optionally, students are invited to bring one or two glass jars with tight-sealing lids (can be old jars that are clean or new jars) to take home natural dye from the pots to continue to experiment and explore at home. Dye will be hot from our use, so a glass jar (no plastic containers) with a good seal is a must to safely transport the dye.

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:
Always interested in finding ways to add harmony, beauty and depth to my life and space, my journey with fiber and textiles began as a child. I adored piles of colorful yarn and fabric. I had always felt, that in some other life, I’d been someone who breathed life into these mediums. As my path wound its way, I fell in love with the nature of story and pursued Literature & Ethnic Studies at UC Berkeley. After Peace Corps service in a tiny village in the Amazon Rainforest, I returned to California and spent the next decade working, starting a family, and eventually, exploring fiber arts. I learned to weave at a Cistercian monastery on the Lost Coast of California, and quickly found my life-long passion. I am nurtured, connected and aligned while weaving. And Intuitive Weaving, as I call it, has been a place of unpacking emotions; subconsciously discovering new frontiers; understanding intertwinement; and learning to be gracious, not just with the world, but with myself. My small business, ANINI Designs, now specializes in offering a variety of craft supplies — natural dyes, natural fiber dyeables, and handwoven &/or hand-dyed textiles. I enjoy creating a sustainable, eco-friendly, inspiring future of mindfully making, exploring and teaching these craft mediums to you. – Jeanine Ertl, Owner, Weaver, Natural Dyer & Educator at ANINI Designs
