Tie-and-Dye Saree Design Work Shop Series- Day 24

Continuing the series, the workshop in Ratnapura focused on practical tie-dye saree design techniques, including fabric preparation, dye formulation, pattern creation, colour application, and finishing methods. Participants engaged in hands-on exercises to understand fabric behaviour, colour retention, and design consistency necessary for marketable sarees. Through demonstrations and guided practice, attendees learned how to transform simple fabrics into high-quality, visually striking designs suitable for contemporary fashion markets. The workshop also emphasized low-cost, small-scale production strategies, enabling home-based entrepreneurs and small-scale producers to develop profitable textile ventures. By integrating technical skills with business-oriented learning, the programme promoted income generation, encouraged micro-enterprise initiatives, and contributed to the growth of creative textile solutions in Ratnapura.
