Learn all the different techniques you need to know when printing onto paper & fabric, test out a range of designs & colours and then use this knowledge to print a selection of fabric and paper items. You’ll leave with a handful of beautiful block printed goodies and the confidence to carry on printing at home!

The afternoon will start with rummaging through our large selection of printing blocks, and selecting a mixture of designs which you would like to use. Once you’ve chosen your selection you’ll then be given a full and detailed demonstration on how to block print. We then start printing onto practice fabric, perfecting your printing and working through a mixture of techniques like colour mixing, repeat design printing, random printing, straight lines and more!

After that you will print a selection of paper products such as cards and gift tags, and finally moving onto ready made fabric items such as tea towels and tote bags.

This workshop is suited for all abilities, whether you have printed before or not this workshop is for everyone. Indian Block Printing does not require you to be artistic or creative, we have lots of samples and inspiration to help you get started.
