Episode #112: Carol Soderlund

On today’s episode of the Craft Industry Alliance podcast we're talking about color and dye with my guest, Carol Soderlund (http://www.carolsoderlund.com/) . An artist and educator for 25 years, Carol’s curiosity about the range of color derived from yellow, red, and blue dyes led to her creation of her Color Mixing system for dyers. Carol encourages the freedom of mixing color by eye with results-based samples to guide the student. A former high school teacher, Carol was nominated for Teacher of the Year in 2013 and again in 2015 by the International Association of Creative Arts Professionals. Carol is co-author of Playful Fabric Printing (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/069...) with Melanie Testa (http://melanietesta.com/) . She has shown her quilts in juried venues across the country, winning awards including Best of Show at the International Quilt Festival in Houston, Texas. +++++ This episode is sponsored by StitchCraft (http://www.stitchcraft.com/) .
