Gel Plate Printing on Fabric
Printing on fabric with paints using a gel plate is a lot like Forrest Gump’s box of chocolates – you never know what you’re going to get. But I guarantee you’ll like it! The techniques are easy: learn to mix colors on the plate and combine layers, shapes, masks, stencils and textures for surprising, stunning results. Painted fabrics can be permanently heat set – your creations can be used for quilting, fiber arts, home décor projects and clothing. The possibilities are endless!
3 Hour Workshop, Date and Time TBD
Student Capacity: 20
Supplies and fabric are provided for use during the workshop
Required Kit Fee $10. You can take home your painted samples.
