Textile Design:
Eco print on silk

Create your own naturally dyed silk scarf using plants, flowers, and a centuries-old dyeing technique.
About the course
Tutor: Mary Cushing
Date: 25 June 19:00-21:00
Price: £50
All materials covered. Flexible payment with Klarna available.

Join us for a relaxing and hands-on evening workshop where you’ll discover the beauty of Eco printing — a natural dyeing process that uses the colours and shapes from botanicals to create unique, organic patterns on silk fabric. This 2-hour session will guide you through the process of extracting colour and form from plants, flowers, and kitchen waste to imprint onto silk.

What to Expect:
  • An introduction to eco printing and how it works
  • A hands-on demonstration of the process
  • A chance to experiment on a 1/3 metre piece of silk to test patterns and colours
  • Creation of your own 50×50 cm mordanted and hemmed silk scarf, ready to wear or gift
  • Access to a range of natural dye materials and tools
  • A take-home worksheet to help you repeat the process on your own

All materials are provided, and no previous experience is needed — just bring your curiosity and a willingness to play with colour and nature!
You’ll leave with a beautiful scarf, new skills, and the satisfaction of having created something truly one-of-a-kind using sustainable, plant-based methods.
