A THOUSAND PAPER CRANES

This week the lino print designs were translated onto fabric.

The technique is very similar to printing on paper, but with an interesting additional advantage. Printing onto large sheets of calico prompted using the blocks to create repeat patterns with very satisfying results.




“What’s good about these groups is that it’s ok to make mistakes. It’s about experimenting”


“I’ve worked with this design on paper for a couple of weeks and I didn’t like it, but I think it really works on the fabric. I really like the colours I chose, even though I didn’t think they would work. It works as a pattern.”
