• 5/5 from Katherine Jayne Geraghty, attended Dec 2024: My teacher today was Chloe, and she taught me how to set up and use a sewing machine, along with styles of stitching etc. She was very friendly and easy to chat to, explained and demonstrated everything very clearly and helped me to also carry out the things she had showed me, answering all my questions in a kind and patient manner. I would definitely recommend a one to one lesson to anyone.
• 5/5 from Eric Weir, attended Oct 2024: I was having trouble with my machine stitching materials and on attending the workshop with Cloe who show a very competent and comprehensive understanding of the machine and my problem with stitching, to then pass on a clear explanation, whilst showing me what the cause may be. This will enable me to resolve further issues should they occur at my home. The venue was good, warm and the lighting of the work space was good to see the operation of the machine. We were not distracted or interrupted by other customers or staff. As stated, I gained a better understanding of the mechanism of my machine through Cloe’s pleasant professional approach especially as she did not know fully what issues I had that she was going to have to solve. Well done to Cloe, would most definitely recommend this workshop. Too much came out of the workshop to say what I liked most as it fulfilled my needs completely.

Having lost confidence in trying to use a sewing machine in secondary school Chloe was patient, friendly and definitely didn't make me feel foolish. I had a brilliant time, the workshop in my opinion is well worth the money it costs and I have come away much more enthusiastic and confident.
• 5/5 from Audrey Ghanney, attended Jun 2024: A refresher on using a sewing machine and using a pattern for simple projects. Chloe was patient and inspirational. Thanks to her my sewing machine was retrieved from the loft today! I was able to easily set up and mend my son’s school trousers. Next, I’d get a pattern and start a project! Thank you

• 5/5 from Faith, attended Mar 2024: My husband bought this voucher for me for Christmas and I chose the class. I chose to learn how to read a pattern. Chloe was so kind and so helpful. She took all my measurements and showed me which measurements correlated to which area of the body. I took a pattern into the shop with me and we opened this out and Chloe helped with understanding how to find the right size to follow, explained a lot of the ‘jargon’ and then picked the tricker skill in my pattern (shirring) and showed me how to do this on the machine and then I had a go too. I left feeling super confident about starting my project, having never read a pattern before but being determined to start dress making for myself! Thank you so much to Chloe.
