Join me for two creative hours discovering the beautiful art of traditional block printing in a relaxed, hands-on workshop in London.
Using a selection of traditional hand-carved wooden printing blocks and colourful fabric inks, you'll learn how to build patterns, combine colours and create your own designs on fabric. I'll guide you through the process, from choosing your blocks and colours to practising your pattern before printing your finished pieces.
Each participant will print their own tote bag AND pencil case to take home. All materials and equipment are included, so you simply need to come ready to create.
This workshop is designed to be enjoyed together. Come with your child, a family member or a friend. Adults are also very welcome to book together, so you do not need to be attending with a child.
No previous block printing experience is needed. You'll have time to experiment with the blocks and inks, learn the printing process and enjoy creating something completely individual.
Important information for families:
Children must be aged 10 or above and must attend with a participating adult.
Parents and adults accompanying children are participants too and must book and pay for their own place. The adult will take part in the workshop alongside the child rather than attending only as a spectator.
For example, one adult attending with one child requires two paid participant places. Both will take part in the workshop, and each person will print their own tote bag and their own pencil case to take home.
All materials and equipment are provided, along with light refreshments.

  • One hand-printed tote bag & a pencil case per participant

I’m a London-based block print artist originally from Pakistan, creating handcrafted textiles, homeware, fashion, and accessories. My work blends traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design, celebrating the beauty of slow, sustainable making.
As a mum of four, I balance family life with running my creative business, where each piece is hand-printed with care and intention. From intricate linen eye masks to vibrant quilted pouches and hand-printed lavender sachets, my collections bring artistry and functionality together.
Beyond my studio, I host block printing workshops in Leyton Green, offering people the chance to explore this beautiful craft—whether it’s for a special occasion like Mother’s Day or simply for the joy of making. I also organize artisan markets, curating spaces where independent makers can share their work with the community.
As a Small Business Ambassador at the British Library, I’m passionate about supporting fellow creatives and growing my own brand. With a focus on expanding my online presence, I’m working on new ways to share my collections and connect with a wider audience.
I’m currently preparing for my Spring/Summer Collection launch on March 7th, featuring fresh block-printed textiles, homeware, and accessories. Stay tuned for new designs, and if you’d love to experience the magic of block printing firsthand, join me at one of my workshops!
