Block Printing Cushion Workshop, Fri 9 May, 10.30am - 1pm

Print your own cushion cover. Join Sarah from 'Sarita Prints Joy' for this half day block printing workshop in the mezzanine of the Riding House Café nestled in the heart of the garden at Nymans.

  • Booking essential

During this morning workshop you will be inspired to choose and print from Sarah’s (of Sarita Prints Joy) extensive collection of hand-carved Indian woodblocks. Sarah will demonstrate how to make an effective print and give inspiration and ideas for your print design and colour palette with her joyful range of fabric paints. There will then be ample time for you to handprint your final design onto a 50x50cm cream cushion cover to take home and enjoy.

This workshop is suitable for beginners and those keen to experience the art of hand printing. A feather cushion pad can be bought at the workshop for £10, please indicate at time of booking if required.

Everything you need to create your own unique cushion cover will be provided. A relaxed and chatty atmosphere awaits in the Riding House Café on the mezzanine floor over looking fantastic views of the Sussex Weald.

Admission to Nymans is included in the price of the workshop. Please arrive 10 minutes before the workshop is due to start as the Riding House Café is approx. 10 mins walk from the car park.
