If you have ever considered designing and creating something to use in your home or thought about making personalised gifts for your family and friends, this is the workshop for you.

Simply bring along your design ideas for images, patterns and shapes and learn how to translate these into a design, before cutting a stamp using Essdee Master Cut and printing your design.

We will initially create paper and card based products, such as gift tags and gift wrap, before printing onto tea towels or tote bags. ​

The workshop is delivered by Alison Butler.  Alison has over 25 years experience as a textile designer and book illustrator.

 This workshop is suitable for people with a range of creative experiences, wishing to explore printing stamps onto paper and fabric, for a maximum of 10 people.

 Please bring along: an apron, A5/6 ideas/drawings/images that inspire you and a large newspaper in which to transport your work home.

This workshop is suitable for people with a range of creative experiences, wishing to explore printing stamps onto paper and fabric, for a maximum of 10 people. Tuition, materials and use of equipment will be provided, plus refreshments served throughout the day.
