Block Printing Fabric Workshops

Highlights from recent fabric block printing workshops on tea towels and tote bags. Participants enjoyed a fun taster session learning the skill of relief printing by creating a design to cut and print from linoleum, resulting in a unique take-away product!”

Cranford House Workshop

A wonderful taster day in June at Cranford House for creative year 10 students interested in A level Art & Design. I visited in the morning and we explored the possibilities of creating designs from a selection of their photographs, paintings, drawings, textiles, collage and sketch book work; scanning and developing various aspects using Adobe Photoshop tools to create layered combinations of prints, pattern, texture, scale and colours. The finished designs would be digitally printed onto paper and fabric. A very talented bunch of students. Below are photographs of some of their work in progress.

Printing with Collage Workshop @rumseg

Participants did a wonderful job embracing the mini collage challenges as warm up exercises, alongside printing, painting, sourcing, tearing, cutting and drawing all leading to a finished block stretched collaged canvas at the end of the day!
