About
Join Jenna from Sychar's Well on 21st of November for a festive, creative and experimental morning block printing your own Christmas-themed item at Camus House, one of the most beautiful and historic homes in the country. Choose between printing either a table runner, a linen ruffled cushion cover, a set of four "forever" napkins, or two Christmas stockings.
The workshop will run from 10.30am until 2pm. After some warming festive (non-alcoholic) mulled punch to kick-start the morning, the workshop will begin with participants learning about pattern making, and will spend some time experimenting with Jenna's own handcut Christmas-themed blocks to create your own unique pattern. After learning printing techniques and test printing on paper, you will hand print your own unique pattern on to your chosen fabric items, which you can take home and treasure- but importantly, which can be used every year during the festive period.
Guests will be provided with festive refreshments during the workshop: scones infused with the sweet flavours of Christmas, mince pies, gingerbread and tea & coffee.
Guests' seating for the workshop will be split between the homely kitchen and the cook's quarters at Camus House.
This workshop is suitable for complete beginners. Please note that as you will be working with textile ink, it is necessary to either bring an old apron or to not wear your finery!
*After purchasing, please email Jenna to inform of any dietary requirements, should you have any.
**Please note that the forever crackers will consist of four quality cotton napkins, the cardboard inserts which can be used each year, and the ribbons. They do not include items for inside Christmas crackers.
***If you should need to request a refund, notification must be made 3 weeks prior to the workshop, otherwise participants who cannot attend may transfer their ticket to a friend. Tickets cannot be transferred to a different workshop.
