Gelli-plate printing is one of my favourite techniques, giving fabulous results both expected and unexpected. It is a great way to create original fabric to use in quilts and hangings, but it is just as versatile on paper.
This is a self guided course consisting of series of videos taking you through the basics of gelli-plate printing, exploring some of the fun ways you can use this technique.
