Printmaking & Book Making Workshops with Sally Darlison

Book by Sally Darlison 

I am trying to decide which workshop to book into with my sister's workshops. Sally is an artist & she is running some great workshops at her place & I am really keen to learn about printmaking, but the "New Surfaces" workshop has sparked my interest as well.

Not only would I get a great day away from the all of the testosterone in my house, but I might actually learn something new.

Sally also has a great blog called Fusion - Fabrics, Paper, Stitch , so pop over & have a look at her work.

The details are:
