Aizome Studio | suzanne connors

Welcome the changing season with a week of cloth, color, and creative exploration in the mountains of Tennessee. Join Suzanne Connors for a retreat bringing together shibori, eco-printing, surface design, and independent study.

Explore the possibilities of indigo through shibori, discover the impressions that leaves and plants can leave on cloth, and consider new ways to develop pattern, color, and texture. Demonstrations and supported exploration will invite you to experiment, follow unexpected discoveries, and find connections between processes.

Independent study offers time to pursue your interests—continue a project from home, revisit techniques introduced during the retreat, or spend unhurried time stitching and developing your cloth.

Shared meals, optional outings, and relaxed evenings with fellow makers round out a week of thoughtful making and creative companionship. Additional program details and guest instructor information will be announced as plans are finalized.
