Beginners level - Screen Printing on to Fabric

Helen who ran the class was lovely very informative and gave us all clear instructions. I really enjoyed the class and would recommend to go

We had such a lovely evening with Helen. She is a great teacher and we all came away inspired. The finished designs were all so different - a testament to her skill at letting us all follow our own design paths, under a watchful eye that meant they all worked!

We booked as a surprise for our mums birthday. It was a lovely experience from start to finish. Helen was so helpful and supportive throughout. I will be recommending this to others!

Helen was a brilliant teacher. I'd been wanting to try screenprinting for some time and she was very thorough and helpful. I was very pleased with my printed tote and now confident to try it at home.

A brilliant workshop, I’d thoroughly recommend it! Helen is a great teacher, and I so enjoyed the experience. I found the screen printing process really satisfying, and it was lovely to come away with my own printed designs. Thanks Helen!

I had a great time with Helen during my class for fabric screen printing. Helen warmly welcomed and made me comfortable at all times. Her way of teaching is simple and good. I had no previous experience. She replied to all my queries and I recommend this class to those who want to learn screen printing on fabric.

I had a great time, Helen was really lovely and super helpful with helping me achieve what I wanted to get out of this course. It was super easy and chill and I had a great day.

Wonderful class. Enjoyable and well run. Helen is a super teacher. Definitely will do it again. Eva

We absolutely loved our introduction to screen printing with Helen. Such a fun experience and we got to take home what we made! Thanks Helen!

We went to a beginner's workshop for the family (2 adults and teenage to primary aged kids) and had a fantastic afternoon! It was great to do something together that was fun for us all, and in such a lovely and inspiting studio. We each got to create our own designs and print them ourselves onto a t-shirt or bag. Helen explained it all and encouraged us along with a kind patience. I'd love to go again... Thank you Helen!

Our session with Helen was great. A perfect combination of practical learning under her guidance and creating our own individual work to take home. It was really enjoyable and am planning on doing it again soon.

The workshop was brilliant. I was really lucky to be the only person on the course that day, and Helens instruction was really great.

I thoroughly enjoyed this introduction to screen printing! Helen was really friendly, talked through all the key points and was attentive while we worked to help guide us. She provides plenty of materials and inspiration to help you decide your print. Would definitely recommend it!

Helen is very welcoming and knowledgeable and the venue is a working studio with lots of inspirational prints and resources on display. Helen showed us how to create and set up a design created with paper cut outs or tape for printing with a screen and squeegee onto either a bag or tea towel. The finished results were amazing and we all left the session excitedly clutching our creations and buzzing with our new found skill. Helen was brimming with ideas and advice at every stage of the process and enjoyed sharing her expertise with us. Thank you Helen :)

Fantastic beginners' introduction to screen printing. Helen was very patient and explained the technique well. A fun and educational day!

What a fantastic class. I took my partner as a valentines gift as its something she has always wanted to do. Helen was very welcoming and had some biscuits at the ready to snack and some wonderful Jasmine tea. The course itself is very informative and fun and you get a lot of Helen's time due to the intimate size of her workshop which is fantastic. I would highly recommend this class to anyone. We got a tote bag that each of us had made plus some samles we had made which are all being put to good use. Definitely go to this class, you wont regret it.

I had a great time at Helen’s class, her studio was lovely with lots of inspiration and examples of work she’s previously created. I’d never done fabric printing before but Helen explained the process really clearly and let us have a go on a sample piece of fabric before we created our final product. She gave individual guidance in choosing our designs and how to cut the stencils, even offering tea and biscuits which was a lovely extra! Helen didn’t rush us even though the class ran on a little, allowing us all to finish our work. I’m now left with a fab tote bag that I’ve already had compliments on! Overall a really fun friendly class, would definitely recommend :)

Great class, loads of fun, love my new tote bag 🤗 Hellen was a super patient teacher 👩🏼‍🏫💪

This was my first course booked through Obby and I was SO pleased I signed up for it. The class was a really good size of 4 people so we all had enough time to take everything on board. Helen is really friendly, welcoming and patient. She explained the screen-printing processes clearly, showing us all the equipment and guiding us through each step making sure everyone knew what they were doing. We all had a practise run before putting our own chosen designs onto Tote Bags or Tea Towels. There were lots of fabric paints, stencils, shapes and ideas to choose from if anyone wanted some inspiration. Helen gave everyone 1:1 help and attention - not to mention some fab Jasmin Tea! So we all had plenty of time, nothing was rushed (in fact the course ran over). It was great to come away feeling you have learnt something new and better yet - created something that you could take with you. I would highly recommend Helen's course to anyone wanting to learn screen-printing. It's a very therapeutic, creative and rewarding craft. I'd definitely like to go back and learn some more screen printing techniques! Thanks Helen for a really lovely morning of learning and creating! x

This is such a great way to spend a morning or afternoon. Helen explains everything in a friendly and thorough way. I met new people, had a cup of tea and came away with a lovely tea towel. I absolutely loved this class, I will definitely be back. Highly recommend. Catherine

I thoroughly enjoyed Helen’s class; it was the perfect mix with an authentic studio to work in alongside an informative, welcoming and productive session with an expert. I’ve caught the bug and can’t wait to screen print more. Thanks again Helen, I’ll definitely be back.

Helen was fantastically welcoming and easy to chat to. She taught the class in a very relaxed way that put us all at ease. We completed two different screen prints - the first was a purposefully quick design and print to get us used to the process (I'm turning mine into a makeup bag!) and the second was a carefully planned one. The venue is really lovely and full of bits and pieces to inspire you. I went in without an idea and came out with two pieces of screen printing that I can't stop telling people about!

Helen was an absolutely wonderful teacher - friendly, encouraging, calm and clear. Plus her own screen printing work in her workshop was beautiful. She let me do more than I should have asked for and was really patient and helpful. I made something that I absolutely LOVE and I had a super lovely few hours learning how to screen print in her super cute studio. I would recommend this course to everyone. I definitely now want to do more screen printing. Thank you Helen - my print has pride of place in my room and I feel so happy whenever I look at it! P.S. she also has DELICIOUS jasmine tea.

Helen is friendly and welcoming, and her studio is lovely! Tea and biscuits were (gratefully) on hand, and she taught us about the basics of screen printing onto fabric. It was great that we were able to have a play at the technique before creating a print on a tote bag or tea towel to dry and take home. The workshop was very informative and fun, Helen has created a really welcoming atmosphere where you can be creative without judgement, it was fab! Will definitely be going back!

The work shop was lovely with elaborate printing displays of all the screen printing fabrics and soft furnishing displays Helen is very delightful friendly a d very artistic . She made me feel very welcome and showed me lots of techniques and skills that can help me improve on my silk screening. She also gave me tips and information on the types of equipment and materials that I can obtain from various websites. It was a pleasure to work with her and I enjoyed my time there . I would definitely book another class.

We had a really fun afternoon with Helen and was able to create some great personalised bags in the short lesson. Her studio is lovely, fully of inspiration. We were a group of 4 friends so were able to arrange a private session with Helen at a time that suited us. This was perfect. Thanks so much.

I found the whole experience a delight. Helen was lovely and went at a nice steady, relaxed pace so you didn’t fall behind. I found the studio a really nice, sweet creative place to create some cool stuff. I will defo go back there for a course in the future. The outcome was so pleasing. Print screening, Cup of tea and a few cheeky choc biscuits......can’t go wrong! 😁

Helen’s class was a delight. Helen is a great teacher and packed in a great deal of information in a short time. The session was well planned and we achieved a great deal under her careful and thoughtful tuition.

Helen is a fantastic teacher, explains things well, makes you feel very welcome and we even got a lovely cuppa. I came away with a great shopper bag with my own design on it...very satisfying. I'm now feeling totally inspired and wanting to do more. I would recommend this class to anyone wanting to be creative and inspired or just try something new. Thanks very much Helen

Great introduction to screen printing. It was lovely to meet Helen and learn from her in her beautiful studio. The class allowed for a good balance of creativity/freedom and support - the smaller group size helped us get more out of it. After a dry run, you work on your print for a tea towel or tote bag to take home. Would definitely recommend!

Great class, Helen is very personable and knowledgeable and I ended up with something that I was really happy with.

Helen is a great teacher I really enjoyed and learnt a lot from the beginners level course! She gave some hand tips!

Helen was fantastic. Very friendly and explained things clearly . She made the whole process fun and we were all delighted with the tote bags or tea towels we printed. Would highly recommend and hope to do another class with her in the future.
