Can I make a block print blind?

[MissPettigrewIsWFH]

I am not that crafty, but I did learnt to sew a million years ago... I'd love to have block print blinds in my larder. I ADORE Molly Mahon (https://mollymahon.com/collections/fabric?gclid=CjwKCAjwvrOpBhBdEiwAR58-3BkId7PejeO1uswGaZVa81wEHudezqyqSKbrO61zDGShiExPpKkuhBoCVJYQAvD_BwE) but they are out of my budget. So I had the vague idea of making them myself (including buying the block and paint and printing them).

Am I totally mad?

I don’t see why not. You can get some lovely Indian woodcut stamps on eBay and fabric paint or inks. I’d buy a few metres of cheap canvas and some different paints and have a go. I made block printed cushions, table runners and candle sconces about 20 years ago including cutting my own stamps to match some vintage curtains I found in a charity shop.

Nothing to do with me, but this company sells some lovely blocks. Indian Block Prints

I saw those and love them! What about the element of making the blind itself? Or is it better to buy a ready made blind and just do the printing bit??

I'd possibly buy the blind then block print it - but think carefully about the fabric the blind is made from!
