Traditional Indian Block Printing

Learn the age old process of block printing used for printing patterns onto paper or textiles using hand carved wooden blocks with Jenney Kelly in The Studio here at Leonardslee. Using traditional Indian hand carved wooden printing blocks, you will immerse yourself into a creative and fun few hours, experimenting with a variety of printing blocks and colours.

Following a demonstration, you will have plenty of time to practice, first on paper and then calico (a type of cotton), which can then be used for other craft projects or wrapping paper.

Using a selection of hand carved wooden blocks, you can choose to print a set of 4 napkins or 2 tea towels, along with 6 notecards and a little pouch to store them in. If there is time, there will also be an opportunity to print some other small items. These would be at an additional cost on the day.

This workshop is suitable for all levels with no previous experience necessary. See what you need to bring below.
