On Friday, the HoC Studio was bustling with fun as we learned a new skill! 🙌

Block print making with erasers, lead by .d was SO FUN! 🤩

We carved designs into the erasers (a very satisfying step!) then stamped onto scrap fabric and cut out our designs, then attached adhesive backing to make stickers!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for this wonderful workshop and to D for leading us 🥳
