Beginners Fabric Screen Printing Workshop

I enjoyed so much the day and the experience. It was interesting to go through the printing process. There was a great selection of colours, materials and I felt I have learned a lot on the day. There are few suggestions that I believe to be useful. - having more than an hour lunch break where people went to different places can be a bit isolating for people, especially the ones going by themselves. I understand that lunch is not included, but all the courses I have been before, lunch time was spent together as it is an opportunity to socialise. - we were only five people in the course, which I think it’s a great number to start with. I still did feel that trainers could have supported more throughout the printing process. Overall it was a great experience that I would recommend to everyone!

The instructors were very friendly and had great tips throughout the day. It was very helpful to actually go though the steps myself with the instructors explaining and then watching over. The workshop was really enjoyable and the time just flew by. I would definitely recommend the workshop to anyone looking for something creative and fun to do or those thinking of starting screen printing.

Fun day out, hoping to do more screen printing in the future

Such a good day!!!!!! loved the process, really nice teachers and a cool space to work in, highly recommend! possibly worth adding 30 mins extra to the day.

Improvement in the details of the material used should be there. List and process to be handed over in class or emailed.

I enjoyed the day but we weren’t told much about the technical side of screen printing which was a shame. It would be fantastic to receive a list of materials and suppliers after the course. We were very rushed after lunch which was a shame as a small group we had plenty of time and ended up finishing almost 40 minutes before the course should have finished. Disappointing.

I’ll start by saying the teachers were lovely so I didn’t want to leave a negative review however unfortunately the day was quite disorganised and I’m not sure it was really worth the money. Firstly there wasn’t tea and coffee on arrival like it said there would be, and as the teachers weren’t ready we didn’t actually start doing anything until an hour after it started. I sent my design in advance and it had mistakenly printed in reverse so my print wasn’t how I wanted it to be. It felt like instructions weren’t very clear and there was often some confusion throughout the day. As we started late we were then rushed in the afternoon for the printing part which was unfortunate as it was the most important part of the process. Overall I’m not sure I’d recommend as I was waiting around for a lot of the day due to general disorganisation.

I really enjoyed this workshop. Holly was brilliant and explained all of the different parts of the process really well. She was very patient with all our questions and confusions! She also showed us some samples of different print techniques and explained how print techniques are used in the industry. I was very pleased with my finished fabric. Thanks!

My boyfriend felt that the teacher made some promises and didn’t deliver (his screen had a hole in, and she said he could do a new one then changed her mind, she said he could use three colours then changed her mind) however he also said that she stayed longer to help everyone finish which was lovely. He had a really great time and thought the teacher was good overall.
