Large Scale Fabric Stenciling Workshop

Here we explore printmaking with artist Erin Dollar of Cotton & Flax as we dive into large scale fabric stenciling to create a beautiful custom blanket. We are excited to bring a form of printmaking to makers that allows for both small and over-sized custom textile art. Stenciling is one of the oldest and richest forms of printmaking and is still widely practiced throughout the world. Stenciling is a great way to create one-of-a-kind designs and is perfect for creating custom decor for your home.

We’re so excited to have partners with Robert Kaufman, a to-the-trade fabric designer in Southern California, to offer one of the highest qualities of 100% linen fabric on the market. This fabric is in its natural state and offers a beautiful flax color way that makes a lovely base for a stenciled pattern. This blanket is a diverse, large, soft, take-anywhere, drape-anywhere blanket and is perfect for picnicking, beach outings, backyard book reading, sofa snuggling, slinging over a favorite chair or draping as a bed scarf. There’s a reason breathable, soft linen bedding is so well loved and we’re bringing it to our workshop in a really lovely way!

This workshop includes:

• An online instructional video workshop by Erin Dollar
• A recorded Maker Chat Q&A with our artist and podcast

The tools & materials included in this kit:

• a custom, large 4.5×6′ 100% linen blanket (each sewn one at a time by hand in Southern California) with directions to create a deliciously soft throw or a bit sturdier picnic blanket – this happens in the washing phase!
• Erin’s favorite textile paint in blue and black
• stenciling paper
• a straightedge knife for carving your designs
• a foam paintbrush for applying paint to fabric
