Title of Masterclass: Repeat Prints: An exploration of natural colours
Brief description of planned activity: In fashion design, one of the most common prints you might find on a garment is the repeat print. In this workshop we will guide students on how to create your own repeat print stencil to create your own bespoke fabric that can be used to create a garment. We will provide a range of natural colours for club members to create their print designs made from plants, food waste and seaweed!
