Not every mark needs to be the star — sometimes the most powerful thing you can carve is the stuff that fills the space around it. This month we're focusing on texture marks and pattern fillers: the crosshatching, the stippling, the little repeated shapes that make a background feel rich and intentional instead of empty. You'll carve a small library of filler marks and learn how to use them to support your hero motif without competing with it. It's one of those skills that quietly transforms everything you make after.

This class builds on our previous workshops but is open to beginners as well. 

All inks, and fabric are included with the registration fee.
Students will need a 4x6 in. carving block for this workshop. Blocks are available for purchase in class for $7.50 - $10, or you may bring your own.

Please bring your printing kit to each class!

This year-long block printing series introduces students to the art of hand-carved block printing on fabric through a progressive, skill-building approach. Over twelve monthly, three-hour classes, students will learn core printmaking techniques while creating custom fabrics that can be incorporated into sewing projects such as tote bags, wall hangings, and home décor.
