“Really enjoyed my afternoon learning how to use a sewing machine again after a 30+year gap. Cerri is a very enthusiasic, patient and knowledgeable teacher, the class was well-paced and the studio well-positioned and provisioned. I'm delighted with my wee pincushion and with the confidence gained. I've already booked on to the level 2 course!”

“Today I attended a class on how to use a sewing machine for beginners. This was excellent. Cerri was great at given simple instructions on how to set up a sewing machine and then we practiced using the machine . We ended up making a pin cushion. Which I’m really pleased with. I will definitely book another class.”

“Cerri was very clear in her teaching. The lesson was interactive and there was time to ask questions all along the way. I’m keen to learn more so plan to book further sessions as I progress in ability. Small friendly class. Ideal for a learner like me.”

“Really enjoyed the class, the pace was excellent and the teacher was very helpful and careful to ensure everyone was confidence before progressing onto the next skill. We were asked to practice what we were taught several times which was so helpful! It really made it stick. We went through the absolute basics of sewing on a sewing machine so it was perfect for those who had never used one or wasn’t familiar. I’m keen to do the next class now!”
