Erika reviewed: Tiffany stained glass wild flowers workshop

"I was looking forward to this course for months and it didn't disappoint! Kate, who ran the workshop session, was lovely, helpful, friendly and encouraging. She kept an eye on everyone and regularly offered help, she explained things well, and she managed our expectations. I came away with lots of beautiful flowers and if I was local I would definitely be looking into doing more courses with them. Thank you! "

Catherine reviewed: Tiffany stained glass wild flowers workshop

"I went on this course, which was a birthday present for one of my daughters. She, being artistic, made some fabulous flowers. Me, being totally unartistic, managed to make some flowers which I have not thrown away! This is a miracle, as normally anything like this would be straight in the bin. But with Kate's help I actually managed to produce something nice. How she did it, I do not know, but it shows how even the most hopeless person can have a great time, have lots of fun, thoroughly enjoy themselves and come away with something worthwhile. Thanks a bundle Kate."

Martin McAssey Glass responded:

"We're really please you had a good day, thank you for the review."

Sarah reviewed: Introduction to fused glass (1 day) in Sheffield, South Yorkshire

"Such an enjoyable day. Martin demonstrated techniques and gave plenty of individual help and guidance. The course is suitable for any skill level and a wide variety of materials is provided to enable participants to either make one of Martin's demonstration pieces or something of your own design. The workshop is set in an open air museum and there is a very good cafe on site. Highly recommended."

"Thank you for the great review. "

Sara reviewed: Tiffany stained glass wild flowers workshop

"I had been looking forward to this course for months and wasn't disappointed! A wonderful day that absolutely flew by - Kate was a fab teacher and I came away with much more confidence in going forward with glass cutting and soldering (even though I have a long way to go to get to Kate's standards!!) not to mention 7 stems of flowers! Took the opportunity to order lunch from the restaurant on site and can highly recommend this too. A word of warning - if you do this one day course, you'll be uttterly hooked and will spend the following days trying to figure out how to give up the day job so you can dedicate your time to longer courses!"

Martin McAssey Glass responded:

"Thank you for the lovely review."

Aravind reviewed: Introduction to traditional stained glass (1 day) in Sheffield, South Yorkshire

"I was looking forward to the one day workshop on the 22nd of April 2023 with great anticipation to demystify " the how is it that any one could create?" the incredible stained glass windows, which I adore in every church I visited for many years. But I did not expect to get the jackpot and that was the experience, that I received. The teacher, Kate Billington, from start to finish, was beyond excellence, who gave us clear but precise instructions which made the whole learning process easy and relaxed and most of all what I came out with at the end the day was my wonderful achievement to relish with pleasure. The proof was that when I got home, my family could not wipe the smile from me, on the other hand, I could not theirs either, seeing me full of joy."

Martin McAssey Glass responded:

"Thank you for the lovely review."
