Botanical printing on silk Botanical printing is a process that captures the natural beauty of leaves and flowers that grow around us. Selected leaves and flowers are arranged on prepared fabric or paper then rolled tightly and steamed or simmered to transfer the pigments from the foliage onto the fabric. Delicate prints of the leaves and flowers are left on the fabric or paper. Pam uses natural dyes to enhance this process. This workshop is an introduction to the many techniques that can be used to create unique prints on fabric. During the day participants will learn how to prepare and print their own unique silk scarf. Pam Tresise is a weaver, spins her own yarns and dyes natural fibres using botanical dyes.

We are putting these rules in place for the safety and enjoyment of everyone involved. Please respect each other, and David on the day. Be kind to each other and take the opportunity whilst in line to make some friends. We look forward to seeing you there! Terms and conditions: Please note the event will be filmed and photographed, as an attendee you consent to footage and/or images of you being used for promotional purposes. You will be required to show your ticket on the day of the event, to gain entry, and as proof of purchase. Parents accompanying their children do not require a ticket (one accompanying adult per child with ticket) To avoid disappointment, we must stress there will be no opportunity to meet David without a ticket. Should you not receive your e-ticket confirmation email please contact events@waterstones.com quoting your booking reference. Due to the anticipated high turn-out, please come prepared to queue – we will aim to keep you updated on your waiting time. Some outside queuing may be required, so please do come dressed appropriately for all weathers and keep hydrated. Ticket holders will receive their copy of the book at the event. David Walliams is very sorry but, in the time allowed he will only be able to sign one book per person, per ticket holder. Sadly, he cannot add dedications. A photo opportunity will be available with David in front of the signing table, so please feel free to bring your cameras! Staff will be on hand to take your camera/phone to get a photo of you with David whilst he signs your book. Please note only ONE photo per group permitted due to timing restrictions. If you have any questions about this event or if you have access requests, please do let us know how we can support your visit by emailing events@waterstones.com Information Source: Waterstones | eventbrite
