"I went from knowing absolutely nothing about sewing to having a grounding in the knowledge needed to tackle basic repairs and projects alone with my sewing machine. Everything from fabric choice and thread types to technique and equipment were covered. I really enjoyed the session and I'm feeling motivated to learn more!"

"My confidence in my sewing skills has improved tenfold. The instructor was really knowledgeable and really patient with me. This workshop is a must for anyone who wants to improve their sewing skills."

"A very passionate, kind and patient teacher. It was quite relaxing and I had a great time. Speaking about the concept behind what we were doing was fantastic for context."

"I'll be wearing my embellished jeans with pride."

"This workshop was amazing. I learned how to mend clothes in three different ways and I was surprised by how easy and fun it was. I feel more confident and inspired to mend my own clothes now."
