Helen Deighan Day

Late November a group of like minded girl friends set out for a fabric dying day at Helen Deighan’s purpose-built workshop studio in Hindhead. Helen’s workshop sits down a small gravel drive behind the village bakerery where you can stock up with goodies for the day.Once settled down with hot coffee in hand, Helen explained simple and effective ways to produce colours and patterns on fabric.  She loves her subject that not only shows in the number of books she has written but also in her warm smile and enthusiam.The day whizzed by and we were left to pack away our wet dyed fabric to be washed out the following day. All of us were delighted with the results and we all had a great day. So thank you Helen Deighan.
