After 20 years in Ballard, Earthues is closing their studio and retail store.  Michele Wipplinger and the Earthues staff invite you to join them on March 8th and March 22nd from 2 pm to 7 pm to celebrate and reminisce about all the wonderful classes and dyeing experiences that have taken place since Michele first opened the doors at the Ballard studio in 1994.  Light refreshments will be available.  There will also be stacks of textiles, books, raw materials and ethnic furniture for sale.  Everything has to be gone by March 31st!  The Earthues studio is located at 5129 Ballard Ave. NW, Seattle, WA 98107 and will be open Tuesday through Thursday, 10 am to 5 pm during the month of March.

After March, Earthues plans to hold workshops and other events at the Sunset Hill Community Center at 3003 NW 66th Street in Ballard.  Dyes will be available through the Earthues web site (www.earthues.com) by email at info@earthues.com or by phone at 206-781-3184.  Special pickup arrangements can be made for local customers.
