Join Paula and Tess for a block printing workshop on Sunday, 8th September, and print with designs from our summer collection in collaboration with Paula, The Crafty Lass.

Meet Paula, hear about her inspiration behind the designs, and learn more about her creative drawing process. During the workshop, you will practice with various designs and colours from the collection, experiment with combinations, and once confident, choose an item to print onto.

All materials will be included in the cost of the workshop. Suitable for all abilities and ages 10+.

Paula Milner (aka The Crafty Lass®) is a rising star in the world of fabric and craft. From the moment we met Paula many years ago on the craft show circuit, we immediately knew we both held shared values of spreading joy and confidence through creativity far and wide, and making art accessible to all. Since then we’ve delighted in watching her business go from strength to strength, from collaborations with Hobbycraft, her own fabric ranges with Craft Cotton Co to becoming one of Kirstie Allsopp’s craft experts.

So when we wanted to introduce some new floral block designs, it was a no-brainer to invite Paula to work with us to design an exclusive block collection. In her words, “Flowers bring so much joy and meaning to our lives. Drawing flowers with their natural colourful beauty, their seasonal resilience to grow, entwined with their associations of friendships, life events and love – they bring me so much inspiration! I hope you enjoy creating with these hand-drawn, hand-carved blocks as much as I have designing them.”

Drawing inspiration from seasonal blooms and foliage, and adding her own delightfully unique visual language, Paula’s block collection and exclusive fabric paint palette will guide you through all four seasons of your gardening calendar.
