Prints Charming @ Koskela

Prints Charming workshops @ Koskela.   Koskela, crafters of beautiful locally made furniture and purveyors of all things good taste, have just opened the doors to their new space in Roseberry. And space is the word, so much so that they have created a purely creative  workshop area, and we are excited  to have been asked to host our screen printing and embroidery workshops here, over the next couple of months.  You must plan your worshop around a visit to Kitchen by Mike, in the same space. Enjoy the freshest of fresh dishes and wonderful coffee either before or after your class, or both! Book early as places are limited ring Koskela on 9280 0999 or email info@koskela.com.au Paper Cut Screen Printing Workshops At Prints Charming we develop most of our original designs using a paper cut method of screen printing. We love this method as it allows you great freedom and gives immediate satisfying results. In this class we explore the possibilities of this useful method of printing. The classes will cover: Learning how to set up your own print table at home. Motif design in relation to this technique of screen printing. ie positive and negative designs, as well as floating piece designs. Applying motif to screen and printing using the over lapping of colours and screens. By the end of the class you will have an understanding of this technique and will be able to further develop at home on a small or large scale. You will print on white “prepared for print” fabric with up to four colours. Cost of each three hour class is $140.00 and includes all that you will need to create your fabric. Please wear clothing you won’t mind getting inky! Bring along some simple motif ideas of your own or we can help with ideas on the day. No experience necessary, prepared to become hooked! Dates and times for screen printing Thursday 17th May 10am - 1pm Saturday 26th May 1pm - 4pm Saturday 9th June 1pm - 4pm Thursday 14th June 10am - 1pm Saturday 30th June 1pm - 4pm  Book early as places are limited ring Koskela on 92800999 or email info@koskela.com.au Embroidery Sampler Workshops   Thread a needle and start stitching! We love embroidery and the way it adds so much colour and texture to fabric, it is the most creative way to paint with thread. The “sampler” has long been the method of learning  your embroidery stitches, we’ve updated the look but the stitches are still the same. Come along to these two workshops, learn the stitches and you’ never look at fabric the same again! Cost of Class $90 for the two classes, hand printed linen sampler panel and threads for class. Extra threads can be purchased to suit your colour choices. Dates Thursday 31st May, 10am -12pm, and Thursday 21st June, 10am - 12pm Book early as places are limited ring Koskela on 92800999 or email info@koskela.com.au   Kids Class! - Screen Printed Bag It's the kids turn to screen print!

After printing we’ll get you embellishing your bag with some simple stitching, buttons and braids.  Ages 8-12. Cost of class  $50.00 includes all that you’ll need.  You may not get the bag decorated completely, but you’ll have everything you need to carry on at home, impressing all who see!  Hurry - only ten  per class!  Just bring your imagination.
