Printed Pattern: wood block printed textiles

Description

Discover the joys of textile printing and pattern repeats using traditional carved wooden blocks. Throughout the day you will learn the basics of repeat structures to create pattern, through to designing and carving your own wooden blocks. Looking at composition, colour and printing techniques you’ll print your very own fabric and come away with something unique to you and your style, perfect to then sew into various items!
