These naturally dyed coasters are woven in our traditional “Rachel” pattern with a cotton warp and a wool weft.  After weaving, these coasters are dyed with walnut, marigold, goldenrod, madder, osage orange, and chamomile.  By cultivating our own natural dyes students engage with head, heart, and hand as they care for the earth, study the biology and chemistry necessary to complete the dyeing process and carefully weave, inspect, and finish each coaster.  This run will be extremely limited, with each coaster in the set dyed with a different plant from campus and are sure to sell out quickly
