    Donna is very patient with so much knowledge, I thoroughly enjoyed the course learning how to use my machine. I will definitely be looking to book the next course in the near future.

  2. Caitlin // CraftCourse #28213 –

    Before this class I was quite apprehensive as it’d been a while since I’d last used a sewing machine, but Donna was very patient, encouraging and made me feel at ease. By the end of the class I was feeling much more confident and came away with lots of lovely items. I would definitely recommend this class as Donna is a great teacher and you’re sure to enjoy yourself.

  3. Victoria // Craft Course #28088 –

    I had not sewn for a long time and was looking to gain a bit of confidence on using a sewing machine again. Donna is absolutely lovely; very supportive and patient. I feel that the lovely peaceful surroundings helped put me at my ease. I will definitely be returning to gain some experience in another area. Would definitely recommend Donna to anybody looking for a new hobby or to gain some skills or improve on existing ones

    I was very apprehensive as I had not used a sewing machine since my teens and my confidence is non existent re technology. I needn’t have worried, Donna was very supportive, understanding and patient with me. A wonderful selection of fabrics were provided along with comfortable surroundings in which to relax and learn. Not only did I succeed in creating some wonderful items I gained the confidence to start a sewing project at home which has lain dormant for some time. Thank you Donna.

  5. Naomi // Craft Course 17488 –

    Donna is an amazing teacher, she’s very patient and willing to show or talk you through any parts that you may have issue with. The course is well worth the time and money and will give you a good understanding of the basics of using a sewing machine and cutting a basic pattern. In addition to the above you get to come away with something you’ve made yourself that looks phenomenal!

  6. Lisa // Craft Course #17485 –

    I had never used a machine before attending Donnas’ course. Donna was extremely friendly and approachable and she gave very clear instructions on what to do and was extremely patient when dealing with a totally novice who could not even thread a normal needle.

    She made the whole experience informative and fun. I was very proud of my finished item.

    And I am sure she will have no trouble in expanding her classes and making every single one an enjoyable experience for all who attend.

  7. Samantha // Craft Course #17484 –

    Donna is very patient and is an excellent teacher and I would always recommend and will be doing the next class. If you want to learn this is the place to go!

  8. Angela // Craft Course –

    Donna is a wonderful and patient sewing tutor. This relaxed introduction to using an sewing machine has taken away my fears and I feel so much more confident about using my machine at home. Great to be able to learn by doing and not being afraid of making mistakes!

  9. Patricia // Craft Course –

    I have attended a few sewing courses but never really felt confident to sew at home. My friend brought me this session for my birthday. Donna has a great way of teaching you how to use a sewing machine, her years of experience and practical solutions to common mistakes have given me the confidence to use my machine at home. Donna even took the time after the session to help me unjam my needle and set up my machine.
