Friday 10th October 09H30 to 16h30pm Saturday 11th October 09H00 to 16H00 only 7 places available Beginners most welcome. Please note this is a 2 day course. Eco-printing involves fresh, dried, whole & complete, wind damaged, nibbled, broken fallen leaves being placed on layers of fabric - rolled and bound tightly before heating to extract the botanical images permanently. A mindful process experiencing each season of nature as she gifts us botanical treasures and discoveries. This 2 day workshop will entail a full understanding of eco-printing on linen/cellulose fabric. It is a hands-on course where we delve into this wonderful medium of capturing nature between layers of thick linen. You will be creating 3 pieces of 150 x 50cm hemp-linen. Large enough to make 3 double sided pillow covers. A wonderful mordant recipe will be yours which will create clear crisp prints and with the use of a tannin blanket which will bring in a background dye colour for even more beautiful results R4375.00 per participant On Friday a not so brief chat will be followed by some foraging, collecting and then the rest of the day we will be creating.
