ReBelle will be closed July 3 & 4 for the holiday.
 
Summer is here and our classes are back in gear. There is so much going on in the shop, we can't fit it all in the newsletter so we are including the highlights and we encourage you to visit our class page, our Facebook, or our Instagram for more of what is new. 
 
In addition to classes coming back, so are our in-person second Sunday Stitch-Ins with Raellyn. That's right, no more Tuesday night Zooms!! The Thursday afternoon KAL's will continue on Zoom until at least September and then we will reevaluate whether to move those to in-person or a hybrid model.
 
ReBelle will be closed July 3 & 4 to celebrate the holiday with our families. When we reopen on the 6th, we will introduce longer shop hours. We will be 11am-5pm Tuesday-Friday, 10am-5pm Saturdays, and 12-4pm on Sundays. We will still accept private appointments after shop hours as needed.

Natural Dyeing with Indigo
 
The indigo plant has been used to create deep, beautiful blues for thousands of years. This will be a combination class and open dye workshop. For those who want to learn we will talk about the different methods of creating and maintaining an indigo vat and we will make the vats for the class to use. We will also talk about the history and chemistry of indigo dyeing. For those of you who just want to dye with indigo there will be vats made up for dyeing fiber as well as fabric and people to instruct you in the process.
