Craft-along: beginners screen printing workshop - October 16th

#1

@members Following the success of last month’s session, we will be running another craft-along session. A follow up session to block printing an introduction to screen-printing.

Choose to make either a handkerchief, scarf or head-wrap and use basic screen-printing techniques to turn a boring piece of fabric into a unique printed accessory.

Workshop structure:

12pm: Refreshments and tour of South London Makerspace (for non-members). Highlight the new screen printing facilities.

12:30pm: How to Design Fabric; Basic Screen Printing and surface design.

13:00pm: Design, Cut and Sew you fabric.

15:00pm End

There is a limited space of 10 people, so if you would like to attend please add your name to the comments section. I currently have 6 confirmed.

I spoke to someone on Sunday who said their neighbour was interested in coming down. If that was you please add their name in the comments section.

Cheers

Chanelle

Hi Cibel,

this will be a slightly alternative screen print session as the messy room isn’t quite ready. Yes would love to tap into your expertise. Look forward to meeting you on Sunday.

Unfortunately I can’t make it tomorrow as I’m working but if you do an evening session sometime please count me in! :slight_smile:

#11

Not to worry - maybe we can arrange a session in conjunction with the opening evening?

#12

Does anyone know if there are any scales at the space? I have a load of ink I need to weigh mix for tomorrow and mine are broken. Thanks

#13

there is a big luggage scale but i don’t think that would be accurate enough!!

#14

Damn it - ok thanks.

#15

Damn are all the spots taken already? Please let me know if one opens up

#16

My sincere apologise due to a domestic issue I have to delay the start time for today’s session to 1pm. I hope you are all still able to make it. Sorry for any inconvienence.

If anyone is in the space, I would be super grateful if you open the projector and screen and put the projector out for me. If not, not to worry.

Cheers
