    Last Thursday at our regular get together at Brocks Hill Visitor Centre, a lovely lady Mandeep came to see us. She is a printmaker and runs printing workshops. The idea was twofold. She brought along a piece of fabric that she had decorated with woodblocks to make into a morsbag, and we had a go at printing on a ready ready made morsbag. We are planning to join together at some of our sunday workshops. Here are some pics

    Offcuts, I’ve tried to look at the photo you posted a link for, but get an error message “404 Page not found”. Have you pasted in the whole of the link?
    I’ve tried to find it on flickr.com but not managed to find it.

    Searched through hundreds of photos – this one isn’t tagged “morsbags” so it was very difficult to find. Is this what you were hoping to see?

    Sorry, I don’t know why it’s got those black bars on either side.

    I pasted https://www. flickr. com/photos/27405018@N03/16085868864/

    and I’ve added a couple of spaces so we can see the address and not the photo.
    I think the address you posted is different, maybe a different photo?

    I have some rubber stamps – the card-making kind. Do you know what sort of ink or paint or whatever you used?

    We decorate plain bags with rubber stamps. We use a paint brush to apply standard acrylic paint to the stamp, then put it onto the bag. Let it dry then iron to set it using a dry iron. Works a treat and it will wash.

    I’ve used stazon ink pads before…. Not sure how theyd work on fabric to be washed though ,I’ve also made coasters with them by stamping onto tiles
