About This Event

Embrace the festive season with a creative morning of Indian block printing in the beautiful surroundings of Ickworth. During this welcoming two-hour workshop with Emerald & Embers, you’ll learn how to use traditional hand-carved Indian wooden printing blocks to create your own unique designs on fabric. With hundreds of beautiful blocks to choose from and a wide range of fabric paint colours, you’ll have plenty of opportunity to experiment with pattern, colour and design. Choose from festive blocks to create something seasonal for your home or a handmade Christmas gift, or explore botanical, floral, animal and decorative designs to create something you can enjoy all year round. After a step-by-step demonstration, you’ll have time to practise, experiment and plan your design before printing your chosen textile items. No previous experience is needed, with guidance and inspiration throughout. Refreshments will be provided during the workshop, which is included in your ticket price.
