During the class, you will learn how to transfer your drawn design onto a soft block, carve it, and test it on paper, card stock, and cotton fabric to build your confidence. The workshop will then proceed to creating prints on linen tea-towels or placemats using high-quality, solvent-free fabric paint in a variety of colors. You will also learn how to mix colors and add special effects to enhance your design.
All tools, instructions, and materials will be provided. By the end of the workshop, you will take home your own freshly carved print block, a hand-printed card, a cotton tote bag, and a choice of either two linen tea-towels or two linen placemats. Additional tea towels and placemats will be available for purchase at the Studio.
