Ann Schroeder Studio :: Special workshops

Special workshops

If you’d like me to create a workshop especially for you or a group of friends or family, get in touch and we can plan something. I offer private instruction based on an hourly rate. Maybe you’d like a half-day workshop for a special birthday party. We could focus on silk scarves or T-shirts. A group of quiltmakers could come and dye lots of cotton yardage together. I’m available throughout the year and welcome your inquiries.

I just love your classes—and enjoy each one more as I learn new concepts from you. . . . I think that I will be in serious withdrawal until the spring when you have new workshops!

Diary of a Dyer for a Day

by Cynthia Baughman

Mabou quiltmaker and fabric artist Ann Schroeder is opening her studio to students weekly throughout the summer, and I recently joined four other women for a day-long workshop in fabric dyeing. I have admired Ann’s work in galleries and craft shows around Cape Breton, and was intrigued by the opportunity to learn about fabric dyeing from a master. It was, as fellow-student Mary MacKinnon said, “a day full of surprises,” in the course of which I progressed from childish finger paint maestro to abstract painter to fashion designer. I will never look at white the same way again.
