• 4/5 from Jennifer Blackmore, attended Apr 2025: I was shown hobbycraft sewing machine by Cara (I think). She was very knowledgeable and patient. She explained the features of the machine and made sure she understood what I needed.
• 5/5 from Eyah Maclean-Jackson, attended Feb 2025: I got a sewing machine as a gift and needed some introductions to the machine. It was a really informative hour, that went by very quickly and I came away feeling more confident with the machine and ready to try my first project. Kaye was really friendly as well and happy to answer all the questions I had. It’s a great session and would recommend to many people.
• 5/5 from Tom Keenan, attended Oct 2024: This was my first "lesson" on how to set up the machine I purchased last year, which I wish had done it sooner instead of trying to fumble my way through. Kaye took both me and my guest through basic set up multiple times and using the machine which allowed us to crack on and get some sample sewing done which just seemed a breeze compared trying to use the machine with just the instruction manual as there are some little tricks which you won't necessarily know without someone showing you. All in all it was great hour and really good value for money especially for the like of myself who really didn't know what I was really doing.

• 5/5 from Paula Womersley, attended Feb 2024: Purpose of my one to one was Getting the right sewing machine. After many years doing other crafts and hobbies I wanted to get behind the sewing machine again. The assistant was very friendly and helpful. The i machine had my eye on happened to be the same one the assistant had at home. We went through all the other machines and what they could offer but I went back to the one i was thinking of. I can’t wait to get started. Thank to the friendly staff and advice at the Bath store. I know I will return for supplies.
• 5/5 from Billie, attended Jan 2024: Freya was my teacher, friendly person & very knowledgeable. I learnt how to use a sewing machine & some troubleshooting to do with the machine. I then was able to have a go myself & ask some questions on projects I'm currently doing. Definitely worth doing if you don't know any thing about sewing.

• 5/5 from Phurita Letheren, attended Mar 2023: I found my teacher, Lydia, to be very helpful when I approached her with queries about tailoring clothes to fit my size. She provided me with a thorough explanation on how to achieve that. HobbyCraft Bath offers a sewing machine in-store, so you don't need to bring your own equipment. The one-on-one tutoring session, which cost £20, is very valuable. I was able to ask about everything I wished to know. I left the workshop feeling more confident and knowledgeable about tailoring my own clothes.
