Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this printing class:

We start with a a bit of history about the process and introduction to the materials, but then get right into carving!  Our goal will be to repeat pattern print one yard of fabric!


Students should come with a 2.5" square image or two that you would like to work with.  Simple designs work best, and then you can add detail as you carve away.  If you have carved before, and are up for a challenge, mention you would like to do a two color design.  Prepare artwork 1.25"x1.25" if you want to try it out.

 A quick carve "Block" all tools are provided, as well as textiles samples pieces and papers. Students will get a large kitchen towel 38"x 38" and be able te print on our textile print table their repeat pattern. You are welcome to bring your own materials to print on too, as it can get pretty addictive. This class is a lot of fun, and you will be able to leave with your block, so you can continue printing on your own!


COVID Precautions:

All attendees must be masked during class, provide vaccine card, and fill out form send the week of your class

Your teacher is vaccinated and will be masked. If you are hearing impaired, reach out beforehand so a plan can be made for the teacher to give introductory instruction without the mask if lip reading is necessary.
