Full Event Information

If you are new to Indian Wooden Block Printing or wanting a refresher then this workshop is perfect for you.

In this workshop you will discover the ancient art of block printing using hand carved wooden blocks made in rural India by skilled artisans. Block printing can be used to create designs on bags, soft furnishing, clothing, lampshades, paper and more.

You will choose from a large selection of blocks and experiment with colour and design. You will learn how to use two colours and how to create repeat patterns on your sampler piece of fabric.

Once you are ready to move on you will print a piece of fabric and be shown how to make it into your own unique lampshade using a design that requires no sewing!

There are several shapes and sizes of lampshades to choose from, there may be a small additional fee to pay on the day if you choose a larger lampshade. Further lampshade kits are available to purchase if you wish to make a matching pair.
