Testimonials

“I could use my sewing machine at a very basic level but hadn’t ever really learnt how to use it properly. I learnt about cleaning it, how often to change a needle… how it actually works! I feel a lot more confident to take on some more adventurous projects now that I have realised how easy it is to do things like darts and gathering! Although there were people of varying abilities the course tutor was really good at splitting out her time to help each of us – even though we all had completely different sewing machines!” Laura November 2015

Testimonials

Thank you so much for my necklace and earrings. My sons were quite bemused that a vendor knew me by name and your personal touch made us all feel good. So much nicer than the faceless Amazon or even the posh mens clothing stores that I frequented (virtually) over Christmas.

I love the necklace and earrings - you were right they do match and I will share your site with friends

Myself and my daughter came in to choose a pattern to get us back into sewing again. Lizzy was so helpful, talking us through all of the patterns she has and what fabrics would suit the pattern and our skill level. We are so exicited to get started and thats thanks to Lizzy's patience and help in the shop. We can't wait to come on one of your workshops.
