Block printing wrapping cloth

Block printing is a hands-on technique that lets you quickly personalize garments, giving new life to old pieces and extending their use by covering stains. You can even upcycle old fabrics into something new—like custom gift wrap!

In this workshop, upcycling artist Jodie from A Fitting Connection will show you how to transform everyday items including fruit and veg into stamps and use block printing to create unique, eco-friendly gift wrap.
