EIGHT budding lino printers went home with handmade tea towels and bags they had created at a workshop in Chalford.

Lino and screen printer Lizzie Mabley led the day-long session at Victoria Works Studios on Saturday, September 17.

She said: “We were very busy, it was a creative day and it was really inspiring, for me and for the participants.”

Lizzie, who began screen printing about 12 years ago, started her business from her garden shed and has named her company, My Blue Shed, after it.

She has been based in the art studios for about a year and started hosting workshops after selling her work at Stroud Farmers’ Market.

Both Folksy and Cotswoldy are craft websites which sell her handiwork and Lizzie is planning her next lino printing workshop in the run up to Christmas on Saturday, November 26.

People will have the chance to make a personalised set of Christmas cards and wrapping paper.
