Hand-print your own cushion cover

Description

Hand-print your own cushion cover! Join our friendly workshop and discover the art of block printing as you hand-print your very own cushion cover. Perfect for beginners, or those looking to try something new, this class is a fantastic way to create a stylish and unique piece for your home, or to gift to a loved one. About the Tutor: Rachel graduated with a BA (Hons) in Printed Textiles from Loughborough University (formerly LCAD). Shortly after, she received her first commission for site-specific hand-painted backdrops, followed by further commissions for printed textiles in churches and building atria, as well as wall hangings for domestic interiors. As a qualified adult education tutor, Rachel has extensive experience leading a variety of print and collage workshops for children and adults across the UK. Additionally, she works part-time as a Digital Textiles Technician at Winchester School of Art, where she provides technical support and workshops for BA and MA Textile Design students in hand and digital printing, fabric dyeing, and CAD. Important Note: We have a coffee shop in our centre if you would like to get refreshments before the workshop, but we suggest doing this 15 minutes beforehand.  Additionally, you are welcome to stop for a break at lunchtime. If you would like to have lunch we would recommend bringing your own. Our coffee shop only stocks light refreshments, cakes, and crisps.
