Boronia Saggers Native Plant Dyes


Boronia Saggers has been experimenting with dyeing silk with native plant material for the past 10 years.  She uses a shibori technique to manipulate and add texture and design to the material. Her workshop will involve colouring silk scarves with a purple berry plant as well as a unique "puff ball" dye. Boronia prides her silks for their rich and vibrant colours.
