Get ready for your favorite farmer’s market by printing your own custom tote bag! In this workshop, participants will carve their own stamps out of pink SpeedyCarve material and use fabric ink pads to print a patterned reusable tote bag.

SpeedyCarve is a soft, rubber-based material that carves like butter – it’s easier on your elbow and wrist compared to traditional linoleum, and it creates great images when stamping on fabric.

Each participant will receive two 4x6” pieces of SpeedyCarve to create the elements of their design. All supplies and tools will be provided and attendees will go home with their hand-carved stamps and printed tote bags.
