About this workshop
Join Brisbane Surface Pattern Designer Rachael King - author of Pattern Pulse Vol 1 & 2 - as she takes you through the steps to creating your own hand-drawn repeat tile. Learn how you can create a repeat tile that is ready to upload to a print-on-demand site for fabric or homewares. And enjoy your choice of tea or coffee with cake at the same time!
