TESTIMONIALS
WHAT OUR MAKERS SAY
‘I have had such a wonderful time at your workshop. You are such a great teacher and the balance of learning, chitchat and delicious flapjack was spot on. I am so proud of my dungarees and can’t believe they turned out so well!’
‘Thank you so much for a wonderful weekend. Me and Kate had the best time with such lovely people and have been proudly wearing our dungarees all day! I've had three compliments already!’
‘I really enjoyed being shown step by step what to do (e.g. here is how to do it, and now and have a go...), rather than relying on a pattern, plus the extra sewing tips learnt along the way. It was also nice being in an environment with likeminded people.’
