Denise Hill reviewed: Copper Foil Stained Glass Taster Evening August

"If I could give 10 stars I would. From arriving until I left it was amazing. Will, our tutor was brilliant. He was organised, clear with instruction, helpful and very patient. I was thrilled with the piece I achieved (a lotus blossom) and although some of us were slow we were not rushed. I would definitely return to do again and would try some of the other courses available. Thank you Will and Steve. "

Chris Fawdon reviewed: watercolour washes workshop

"The watercolour class was great fun. The setting in Galleria was perfect. Our teacher (Stephanie), taught us really good techniques in application of watercolour washes followed by learning how to paint a variety of grasses. The 3 hours flew by and the tea and coffee supplied was a welcome bonus. Thank you"

Jane W reviewed: Crochet for Beginners - Right Handed

"Perfect course for beginners as we had forgotten the crochet lesson our mother had given us as children. Laura was an exceptionally patient and supportive tutor. Very encouraging and showed us what can be achieved with practice with her own impressive work. Was pleased to have my own sampler to practice, crochet hook, ball of wool and pattern to make my own blanket with granny squares. Was fun, relaxing and stressy at times, when things went wrong. Would highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to start crocheting."

Marie-Laurence DAVIES reviewed: Willow Weaving The Duck

"Loved the willow weaving course!!! It was harder than we thought but the rewards were tenfold. Kate was attentive to her pupils’ struggles and came to the rescue quite often. I would recommend this course to friends and family and will encourage my friend to do more willow weaving with me. Our ducks might have turned into geese but they are ours to show off and we’re very proud of them. "

"Very enjoyable and informative half day course. Tutor Caroline was very clear in her instructions and on hand for individual help. This is helped by having small groups. It was a very positive experience and I have continued with the activity using the materials that I purchased. "

Starter Crafter reviewed: Modern Punch Needle workshop

"Course was informative, well paced and great value. Thank you. Would be useful to do some prior research on sourcing/ costing tools and materials to make pieces at home following on from the course rather than buying at the course. "
