Screen printing.jpg

Learn how to design and screen-print floral fabrics in a fun and relaxing environment. Working from fresh flowers, you’ll design floral stencils to screenprint in a variety of colours. You’ll leave the workshop with 2 pieces of printed fabric and either a tote bag or tea towel with your final design, plus the opportunity to create a lampshade with your design on.

During this workshop you will:
-Understand how screenprinting works
-Learn how to create floral motifs from fresh flowers
-Use flowers to create a stencil- (drawing skills not needed!)
-Prepare the screen and fabric for printing
-Print 2 pieces of fabric in a variety of colours
-Print a tote bag or tea towel
-Make your own printed lampshade (£10 additional cost for lampshade)
-Learn all the skills to be able to screen print at home

This afternoon workshop will teach you the basic principles of designing for print, and screenprinting, using A5 size printing screens. As a follow on from this evening workshop check out my 6-week textile design clubs (starting Sept 2019).
