durable, essentials for any rumble-tumble baby. Inside readers will find 24 patterns for baby hats, bibs, a diaper bag built for the back of a stroller, a ribbon-tag blankie perfect for baby to teethe on, and many more pint-sized projects. Beautiful photographs of the finished projects inspire while clear step-by-step instructions and how-to illustrations make for foolproof crafting.

two more classes in spring
There are 2 more workshops scheduled. These printing classes fills up really fast. I have a hard time to keep up with demand - which is a real delightful problem I have. Thank YOU.
Together in my Brooklyn studio we will print on some paper and fabric using really simple methods that you can use at home. After the class you will walk home with some printed goods and hopefully a bunch of inspiration. click here to find out more.

The workshops are a great activity to do with your best friend or your mom…OR: you can book a private printing party with me for your wedding shower, birthday party or other group event you can think of. Please write me an e-mail and
let’s talk some more: questions@jansdotter.com

SURFACE PRINTING WORKSHOPS
Spend a Saturday afternoon printing with Lotta in her Brooklyn studio!

This is an opportunity to learn and explore simple means and methods for printmaking, while also absorbing Lotta’s organic and intuitive design sense for inspiration.Get inspired to create your own individual and unique projects! The emphasis will be on printing on already existing items using easy techniques (like stenciling, printing with linocuts and even potato printing!) anyone can use at home without special or expensive equipment. You will come away from the class with a couple of completed projects and much inspiration to print on anything from pillowcases to totes. Printmakers and creatives of all levels and experience are welcome to attend this exciting and intimate workshop.

All printing supplies and some nibbles and refreshments are included in the cost.

We will also be offering a 15% discount on anything you would like to purchase from Lotta’s studio shop after the class.

Each Class limited to 10 people so be sure to sign up here early.
