Charlotte reviewed: Creative embellishment pack - lucky dip

"Excellent quality materials and the packs included things that I wouldn't normally use in colours that I wouldn't normally choose (I told Jessica to just randomly pick 2 contrasting colours for the packs). This was just what I wanted and needed. She very kindly answered my follow up questions. Thank you!"

Jessica Grady embroidery artist responded:

"Thanks Charlotte, hope you enjoy the packs and having a go with some new materials!"

sandra Johnston reviewed: Textile Art Brooch - Craft Pack

"I loved the nice way the kit was packed, with smaller items in separate bags within the kit, and it was good to see such a variety. The one thing though that I did assume would be there and wasn't, is either some instructions or photos of examples of how to use the kit. For me it isn't a major issue as I craft a lot and am used to embellishing my work, but for a complete beginner, I would think they may struggle for ideas initially. But as I said, overall, the kit is very nice and I like Jessica's work very much."

Jessica Grady embroidery artist responded:

"Hi Sandra, Really pleased you like the mix of embellishments and materials included in your brooch inspiration pack. The brooch pack description clearly states that the packs are inspiration packs and do not come with written instructions. I am a big believer that trying new materials and adding your own twist to projects can create exciting results! I have a variety of packs and kits that I sell with and without instructions but all state what they include very clearly within the descriptions. You are of course more than welcome to get in touch with me via email if you do want any ideas for using a particular material in your pack and I’d be very happy to help! Many thanks Jessica Grady"

"This was a wonderful day. Jess shared so many of her own ideas and techniques. She's a brilliant, encouraging and inspiring artist. Since the workshop, I have been experimenting with the materials I created, and have shared the outcomes in my own classroom. I can't wait to learn from Jess again!"

Julia reviewed: Dye Recycled Materials + Create Mixed Media Embellishments

"Great workshop! I enrolled to learn Jess’s disperse dye techniques. I loved her ideas for spray painting washers and making handmade sequins out of plastics straws and bubble wrap. Jess was a generous and knowledgable teacher with loads of tips. I came home bubbling with inspiration, with a stash of hand-dyed and upcycled plastic embellishments. Well worth the trip from London to Leeds."

Jessica Grady embroidery artist responded:

"Thank you Julia - so pleased that you enjoyed the day!"

Carol reviewed: Dye Recycled Materials + Create Mixed Media Embellishments

"Fun, novel, interesting & relaxing day. Its inspired lots of new ideas and we left with lots of things to create art works with. It's also good for reusing plastics instead of throwing / recycling them. ?"

"Thanks Carol - glad you enjoyed the day!"

Liz reviewed: Sketchbook to Stitch Day - Mixed Media Textile Art

"It was an excellent day. Jess was a brilliant teacher in a non teachery way. We did and learnt so much. I cant believe I put together something worthy bur we did and that made the day even better. Jess is an inspiration and we cant wait for her first book to come out. We will definitely book with Jess again. The venue was very good too."
