Workshop result

 

I love it when a workshop student shows me images of their completed pieces. Jane Starnes has taken it to a new level! 

Jane came on a one day 'Monoprint Magic' workshop at the Cosy Cabin last summer and has used the techniques from that day to make a beautiful large panel in delightful pale shades. It is really lovely.

If you would like to try the 'Monoprint Magic' workshop there is another one day workshop running on Saturday 6th June 2026


We will gather natural foliage and use this to monoprint with a gelliplate or similar to create lots of unique fabric before spending the afternoon making these up into a semi-transparent panel.

Wide choice of colourways - go pale and pastel like Jane or hot and vibrant like the piece I did last year (see left). The size can be adapted to fit your planned space. Simple machine stitching.

All materials provided for £15. You will need to bring a gellipate and roller and a sewing machine. Workshop cost: £55
