On October 17th we held a day for mutual elightenment. Jacob Weiss and Bart Saxton once again shared their tools and experience to provide us with the opportunity to try our hands at block printing.
We began by drawing out designs, transferring them to our blocks, carving them carefully with block carving tools, inking the finished blocks, and finally printing!
- Teresa Ebert carving a fleur de lis.
