Lino printed silk scarf workshop

Description

In this workshop we’ll go through everything you need in order to print on to fabric, from type of lino cut design to the ink we use. My method of fabric lino printing uses different inks and printing techniques to lino printing on paper, so even if you have done lino printing before, this will be a new and fun technique to learn. I will go over the tools and carving basics in this fabric printing workshop, so it is suitable for beginners. The workshop includes all tools and materials to decorate a 40cm x 150cm silk scarf. The colour choice and pattern choice are up to you. Please bring along a motif that you would like to stamp on to your scarf. You’ll go home with a colourful, hand painted and printed silk scarf, and will be able to use the knowledge you’ve learned to print up and create your own patterned fabric. The workshop is held in the workshop in my own home, just outside Stanley, County Durham. Please note: access to my home involves stairs. There will be a maximum number of two people on the workshop, so you will receive plenty of individual attention and tuition.

I’m Carrie, and I’m an artist and art and crafts teacher based in Stanley, north east England. I have been teaching art and crafts since the early 2000s and teach a weekly art and craft workshop in the local area for a social prescribing programme. Through personal experience, I know just how engaging with art and crafts can bring about a wonderful sense of wellbeing and relaxation. I absolutely love passing on my knowledge and the benefits of art and craft for wellbeing. I particularly enjoy teaching absolute beginners, so rest assured, whatever your art and craft experience, I will guide you through the process and make it as enjoyable as I can for you! I love to share my knowledge and tips and techniques, so I hope you'll find the classes fun and informative.
