Kids Camp: Fabric Design and Screen Printing

Ok we have to admit, we are SO EXCITED for this class! We have had lots of kids ask if they can get super messy and play with creating their own fabric designs, and we are finally able to do it! In this class the kids will work with a variety of different fabric painting techniques from stamping, screen printing, mosaic painting, and several others. We will create several t-shirts with original designs, several mosaic wall hangings as well as a cinch tote made out of the fabric we paint and stamp. So excited!

Day One: Painting and Screen Printing! 

On Day One we are gonna get down and get messy with paint and dye! We will learn the basics of screen printing on t-shirts and other objects. We will also start our mosaic wall hanging and stamping large pieces of fabric for construction on day 2. We'll also do our tie dye!

Day Two: Bag Construction and Mosaic Fun

On Day Two we will take our textiles and make a fun cinch tote (because no class is complete without a bit of sewing). We will also finish our Mosaic Wall Hangings and see how our tie dye shirts came out!

Supplies to being for Sewing:

• Three 100% cotton t-shirts. Light colors are better for the kids to play with different colors.
  
• 2 small embroidery hoops (for wall hangings to be taken home)
• 1 yard of solid colored cotton fabric for tote (no stretchy fabric)
• 1/2 yard of solid colored cotton fabric for top of tote (no stretchy fabric)
• 2 yards of strap material for tote straps (is also called webbing, think of the straps on a book bag)

Also Bring:

• A mask that will be worn at all times
• Lunch, two snacks and a water bottle
• Appropriate outdoor wear for lunch (we sometimes go to a nearby park)
