May 24 3:00-5:00pm
Learn to carve rubber blocks to create your own unique prints! Apply the block prints to upcycled fabrics to create new tapestry art, fun patches, personalized dish towels, and more! There will be premade stamps as well.
Attendees are encouraged to bring their own fabrics to print: smooth fabrics without heavy texture or stretch are ideal. Denim, silk, cotton, linen, and broadcloth are excellent. Bring your old sheets, kitchen towels, shirts, jeans, etc. We will provide a variety of fabrics to print on and take home.
