In this workshop, we will learn the skills of mono printing in a fun informative class to design and create unique swatches of fabric to use in our quilting. Students will be guided through the process and techniques of mono printing to create their own original pieces of fabric. We will use a variety of stencils and mark making tools to add detail to our pieces making each piece of fabric truly unique. This is a no sew workshop.
