Join me for this hands-on creative block printing workshop and learn step by step how to design, carve and print your own amazing creations!
During the class, I will show you how to transfer your drawn design onto a soft block, carve it, test it on paper/card stock and cotton fabric to build up your confidence. Then we will proceed onto linen tea-towels or linen placemats using high-quality, solvent-free fabric paint (available in a variety of luscious colours)
Learn how to mix colours and add special effects to enhance your design. All tools, instructions and materials will be provided in class.
At the end of the workshop, you'll be going home with your own freshly carved print block, a hand printed card, cotton tote bag and a choice of either two linen tea-towels or two linen placemats.
Additional tea towels and place mats will be available for purchase at my Studio.

Hi, my name is Nicole. I am a retired Travel Agent with a serious passion for creating beautiful hand-made products using natural fibres and incorporating up-cycled materials.
I developed a fascination for Japanese Arts & Crafts in my early twenties when I first worked with Japanese tourists and visited Japan. In 2019 I qualified as an Ikebana teacher (Japanese art of flower arranging - Sogetsu School) still attending classes and workshops on a regular basis, having recently obtained my 3rd grade teachers diploma.
My creative passion has also incorporated a dab in pottery to make my own Ikebana vases and designing and carving stamps to print my own unique patterns incorporating some of our local flower and fauna, having attended a workshop in October 2024 with Rowan Sivyer, the queen of Modern Block Printing and learning new techniques.
Having attended various Boro & Sashiko workshops as well as having travelled through Japan on a textile tour in December 2018 I learned more about Boro, Sashiko and various other embroidery techniques such as Kogin and Chiku Chiku not to mention Indigo Shibori dying. I refreshed my knowledge on all of the above during a hands on craft tour of Hobard in August 2024.
I love sharing my knowledge and hold regular workshops in my Studio, situated on the Mezzanine Level of an Industrial Shed (stairs, no lift available) in Sumner Park.
