“Shola is a delight - she runs her own fashion business, is charming, knowledgeable and patient. I brought along an old Brother machine which i had never used before but Shola immediately showed me the basics which not only helped me make a cute tote but I can now mend a few things at home . I’ll definitely book with Shola again for pattern making.”

“Shola was wonderful! Patient, accomplished and friendly. She helped me get to know my new sewing machine, and her lesson was well structured. I came away feeling I could actually do some stuff on my own, issues to watch out for, and she even taught me one or two extra tricks. As a professional designer who runs her own small fashion business, she also had a wealth of stories and suggestions where to but fabric. I highly recommend!”
