Jane Worthington reviewed: Ecoprinting with Bookbinding with Earthwise Ecoprints

"A brilliant workshop. Fiona is an excellent teacher. I have since had a go at home with good results. Looking forward to future workshops."

Mary Pryle reviewed: Ecoprinted Lampshades

"Brilliant experience, thank you to Fiona. Very well organised and (although I found it hard work!) we got through each stage in good time. Taking home five pieces of work to use for a lampshade or book cover, or in my case, to use as basis for embroidery - perhaps a wall hanging. Thank you for a lovely day."

Christina Metcalfe reviewed: Ecoprinting with Bookbinding with Earthwise Ecoprints

"I had a really lovely day. It was great full on workshop. Fiona, our tutor for the day, was brilliant- so friendly calm and so knowledgeable in her craft. I have never done ecoprinting before and I loved it. Book binding I had done before many years ago but it was great to refresh this craft and learn a different technique. What I loved about the day is that I came away with beautiful prints and two finished books. Thank you."

Su and Jo reviewed: Ecoprinting- exploring the magic and alchemy

"We had an amazing time learning all about eco printing. The whole day was so interesting and flew by. We thoroughly enjoyed learning a new technique and came away with lots of different prints. Fiona was really knowledgeable and was able to pass on her knowledge clearly. Her enthusiasm for her subject was infectious. We will do another course I'm sure, now that we've got the eco printing bug! Thoroughly recommend. "

Tamala Ayres reviewed: Ecoprinting- Exploring the Magic and the Alchemy

"I had the most excellent time while part-taking in this course. Fiona is informative and well versed in her art and very approachable . It’s exciting to watch and see how your prints turn out - no two are the same. I was so enthralled by the experience and of course I immediately went out and bought a second hand steamer and all the other bits I needed to continue at home. Absolutely loved it, would highly recommend. "
