Family Workshop: Printing Patterns – Personalise a Tea Towel

Sat 30 May 2026 , 12:30pm-3:30pm

Abbeydale Industrial Hamlet

Have a go at easy print techniques and decorate a tea towel, inspired by the beautiful surroundings of the Hamlet. 

 

Slow down and create something beautiful together in the calm and historic setting of Abbeydale Industrial Hamlet. In this hands-on family workshop, we’ll explore the grounds of the Hamlet, collecting patterns and outlines that will feed into your final designs.  

 

We’ll guide you through the design process, transferring vibrant colours and shapes onto your fabric to make your design totally unique and you create something to take away and treasure.  

 

This workshop is suitable for the whole family to do together. We will provide all the materials you need, and no experience is required.  

 

What families have said about our workshops:   

 

“The best thing about it was the freedom for the kids to choose what they wanted to create. Also, great craft supplies.”  

 

“It’s useful to try something new at a reasonable price.”  

 

Check out our other family activities happening at the Hamlet this summer on our website here   

 

Sessions run for 50 minutes. Please arrive at the start time of your ticket to ensure maximum time during the workshop. Please book a ticket for each child and each adult who will be participating in the workshop.  All ticket holders will be creating a tea towel each.  All children need to be accompanied by an adult.
