Japanese Textile Workshops 　日本のテキスタイル　ワークショップ

Living in a small mountain village just outside of Tokyo, I grow a crop of indigo every year and process the leaves into dye using traditional methods. I also breed silk moths, raise the silkworms and then reel/spin the silk from the cocoons. The silk is then dyed with natural dyes and finally woven on traditional Japanese looms. I run several ten-day live-in workshops a year at the old farmhouse here in Japan focusing on the Japanese use of indigo. Contact me for information.

End of the Year Greetings

Thank you Mr Mark san for the photo. It was a wonderful year. So much happiness. (The neurotic part of me has me worried.....I used up my bucket of blessings. The future is going to be rough.)

Best to everyone. I pray and hope all our paths continue to cross with our indigo and other journeys in life.

I echo Judi, an indigo sister from that very first workshop. May your bucket of blessings continue to refill.
