Join artist in residence Casey Beal for a relaxing afternoon of block printing and create your own set of reusable cloth napkins. Using Speedy‑Carve blocks and fabric ink, you’ll design, carve, and print custom patterns that are perfect for making your home a little more eco‑friendly, crafting a thoughtful housewarming gift, or adding a handmade touch to your next dinner party. Casey will cover all the basics for beginners, and all experience levels are welcome to come for the creativity and community. She’ll guide you through each step with samples, tips, and plenty of support. You are encouraged to bring images or sketches for inspiration so you can spend more time carving and printing. Additional pre‑carved blocks will be available to experiment with placement and pattern. Supplies are not included in the class fee. A PDF supply list is available in the workshop description.
Please note that our classes are typically held in the lower level of Arlene's. Because access to the lower level is available only by stair, please let us know if using the stairs presents any difficulty for you in advance of the class so we can make alternate arrangements. We want to make sure everyone is able to enjoy and participate in our classes.
