MEXICO RETREAT Ultimate Natural Dyeing Challenge: 48 colors from 4 natural dyes - Dates: 3-10 February 2026
In 2026 I will host two retreats in San Miguel de Allende
This retreat is the Ultimate Natural Dyeing Challenge: 48 colors from 4 natural dyes. Dates: 3-10 February 2026
You will walk away with printed recipes and instructions, and a full set of 48 colors of (silk) yarn skeins and wool fabric.
From the rooftop studio space of the Case Angelitos hotel, with stunning views of San Miguel de Allende we will explore:
Natural dyeing as you have never seen it before. We dive into the fascinating story of Antoine Janot, an 18th-century Master Dyer. Through his recipes, we understand how to mordant, how to make a dye bath and optimize it. You will learn everything about subtle shading, and how to adjust colors using post-mordants. This is a fit for you if you are really serious about natural dyes, and you wish to understand them for once and for all!
What people said about this workshop:
“ A life-altering experience”
“ These techniques create a world of options for those who wish to use only a few readily available ingredients and recipes that are easily accessible.”
“I felt so accomplished and my dyeing experience gained a whole new level of beauty. I felt empowered to go back to my dyes at home and try out my new skills with confidence. “
San Miguel de Allende is fabulous for shopping, delicious food, and art.
In the evenings, you can grab an Oaxacan ice cream in the central town square and listen to the Mariachis.

Inclusion is so important to me, and I make sure my studio is accessible to all. However, San Miguel is a hard place to go around if mobility is an issue., and the hotel is full of stairs, and no elevator. You will receive a questionnaire to assess how we can make sure you can join us.
