Fabric Meterage Screen Printing Workshop

Learn how to screen print lengths of fabric in Marrickville



3 hours Location Marrickville Class size 2 to 4 guests   $135 - $155 ($135 for Child (14-18 yrs); $155 for Adult) (Afterpay available)

Get ready to roll up your sleeves and dive into the colourful world of fabric screen printing!
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to print your own hand cut stencil designs onto lengths of fabric... perfect for turning into clothing, table runners, cushions, pillowcases and more. It’s a fun and creative way to explore the surprisingly satisfying (and slightly mathematical!) art of repeat textile printing.
Never screen printed before? No problem at all. This beginner-friendly class will guide you through the entire process step-by-step. You’ll learn everything from preparing your design, setting up the print table and creating seamless repeat prints like a pro.
You’ll also discover how to properly cure and care for your fabric prints so they stay vibrant and long-lasting at home.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll head home with your own hand-printed fabric meterage (lengths of approx. 2m x 0.4m), loads of new skills, and the confidence to keep printing independently. You’ll also receive handy reference notes so you can revisit the techniques at home.
Suitable for ages 14+, this class is perfect for creative beginners, crafty friends, or even a fun parent-and-teen day out.
The studio is tucked inside a buzzing creative warehouse in Marrickville, Sydney — just a short stroll from Sydenham Station. There’s also free street parking in the surrounding streets.
Come along with your design inspiration and experience the joy of printing your own fabric from scratch. You’ll leave with a one-of-a-kind textile piece and plenty of know-how for future projects.
* Please note: This workshop focuses on hands-on printing using hand cut stencils. Creating and exposing your designs onto a screen using photo sensitive emulsion is not part of this class.

  • 5/5 from Lana Leslie, attended Sep 2026: My husband and I attended a private Fabric Meterage Screen Printing workshop with Michelle from You Are Brave in Marrickville, NSW, on 26 September 2026, and it was a great experience. From the moment we arrived, Michelle made us feel welcome and at ease. She is incredibly warm, patient, encouraging, and generous with her knowledge. As it was our first time trying screen printing, we were a little unsure of what to expect, but Michelle's calm and supportive teaching style quickly gave us confidence. She demonstrated each step clearly before guiding us through creating our own designs. Michelle struck the perfect balance between providing direction and allowing us the freedom to be creative. She celebrated our successes, answered every question with patience, and made the whole experience enjoyable and fun. We were both thrilled with the pieces we created and loved being able to take our finished work home with us. Michelle's passion for her craft is evident, and her encouragement helped us achieve results that exceeded our expectations. Thank you, Michelle, for such a memorable and inspiring experience. We highly recommend You Are Brave to anyone wanting to learn screen printing in a welcoming and supportive environment.
  • 5/5 from Otto, attended Sep 2026: Awesome workshop. The facilitator, Michelle was very friendly and her 30 years experience shone through. She answered all our questions and was amazing. I want to bring my team to do a session.
  • 5/5 from Shauna McLean, attended Mar 2024: I received a gift voucher from my Family for my Birthday. After perusing all the ClassBento classes, I decided on Michelle's Fabric Meterage Screen Printing class. I'm so glad I did. Michelle is very experienced in her craft and extremely good at passing on her knowledge. All you need to buy is a length of fabric as everything else is provided including delicious snacks. I thought the course was great value for money and I highly recommend it. Five stars from me
  • 5/5 from Virginia Mawer, attended Feb 2024: Oh my goodness! It was amazing. I had such a great time, and the finished result is gorgeous. Michelle is a wonderful artist, a great teacher and she even provided snacks. I’ll be booking in again for more!
