Amazing class. With a very patient and kind teacher. Emma is great at explaining the process. I can’t believe I managed to make something. Will definitely be signing up for the intermediate.

I finished the beginners sewing class with Emma. I had a wonderful experience and highly recommend the class for those (like me) with no sewing experience. The class was super informative but also very relaxed. Having no sewing experienced I was really surprised at how quickly I picked up the basics of sewing and using a sewing machine. Emma and my class mates were so helpful. I am delighted with my finished project - a snazzy cushion! Can’t wait to start my next project. Thanks again!

It was the perfect course for a beginner to learn and practice the basics, pick up lots of tips and gain significant confidence by producing a good quality (all of us) cushion at the end of it. Emma was a excellent teacher and there was a great, relaxed, 'sewing bee' working together atmosphere in the room. Highly recommended and I'm looking forward to doing the intermediate course after some practice at home.

Enjoyed the class! Emma was reassuring and clear. I feel confident using the machine having never touched one before and very satisfied with my (slightly wonky) cushion fitting in nicely on my window seat :)

Cerri was great! Took time to help us all individually and to explain why we were doing each step. I know now not only how to fix an issue but feel confident in why things are going wrong. The sewing through paper task was really useful in understanding how to use the machine. Thanks for all your help!
