Colour Collab: Winter Inspirations
Introducing our new SweetGeorgia Colour Collab series, a colourful hand-dyeing adventure inspired by amazing artists in the fibre arts community.
For our first Winter Inspirations collection, we worked together with the talented spinning instructor team at the School of SweetGeorgia. These remarkable artists do more than teach techniques; they open our eyes to see, spin, and experience colour in fresh new ways. We are thrilled to celebrate these amazing instructors with limited-edition colourways created by what inspires them!
The spinning instructors part of this series:
- Debbie Held — Winter Skies
- Diana Twiss — Shadows on Snow
- Katrina Stewart — Sprinkles of Joy
- Kim McKenna — River Walk
- Rachel Smith — Wesley's Field
Read more about the development of these colourways at the SweetGeorgia blog.
We hope you will also join us for February Fibre Prep! A fun make-along where we're enjoying playing with colour, colour blending, and more. Find more information at the February Fibre Prep page.
