Bandana Bundle Dying
Bandana Bundle Dye Workshop
Tickets are sold via www.toccostudio.com
Tickets for this event will be available through www.toccostudio.com
Back by popular demand, join us at Folklore Flowers for a hands-on workshop that reimagines what flowers can do.
We’ll explore the process of bundle dyeing—a technique that uses steam to release pigment directly from plant material onto cloth. It’s equal parts chemistry and surprise, with each piece revealing its own layered composition of color and form. As an added benefit, this method uses far less water than a traditional dyebath.
This time, you’ll begin by choosing your base: a 100% cotton bandana, either left crisp and white or naturally dyed in advance—soft pink from sappanwood or a pale blue from indigo. From there, you’ll build your design using botanicals and pigments, folding, wrapping, and binding your piece before it transforms in the steam.
When you unwrap your bundle, you’ll see the direct imprint of the plants—shapes, color transfers, and subtle variations that make each piece completely one of a kind.
No experience needed—just curiosity and a willingness to experiment. Join us and see what unfolds. What a thoughtful way to mark Earth Day!
FEE: Your $85 fee includes a scoured and mordanted cotton tote bag and a variety of fresh and dried flowers and extracts and light refreshments.
LOCATION: Folklore Flowers, 266 Boston Post Road, Madison, CT 06443
What you should bring: a plastic bag to bring home wet fiber.

Visible Mending Workshop with Tocco Studio
Visible Mending Workshop- Tickets sold via www.toccostudio.com
*** not sold out- tickets sold at www.toccostudio.com***
Continue exploring the art of visible mending in this hands-on workshop focused on expanding your repair skills across different types of fabric. In this class, we’ll begin with a review of the interior patch technique used to mend woven fabrics like denim—making this workshop welcoming and accessible for those who are new to visible mending as well as those who attended the first session.
From there, we’ll move into new territory: learning how to patch and reinforce knit fabrics. Knits present their own unique challenges and possibilities, and you’ll learn thoughtful, practical techniques for repairing holes while honoring the stretch and structure of the fabric. As always, we’ll approach mending as both repair and creative expression, using color, line, and pattern to turn wear into intentional design.
Whether you’re repairing well-loved jeans, your favorite t-shirt , or simply building confidence with needle and thread, this workshop invites you to slow down, learn useful skills, and see your garments with fresh eyes. No prior experience is required.
All materials—including patches, thread, needles, and fabric samples—will be provided.
Join us at Folklore Flowers and give your clothing a meaningful second life. Reserve your spot today!
FEE: $65
Tickets will be sold through Tocco Studio
LOCATION: Folklore Flowers, 266 Boston Post Road, Madison, CT 06443
