Lovely day with Harsha & Wayne. We made four books using various book binding techniques, we've learnt so much that we can take away to make books ourselves.

Alison Boston Attended Aug 2026



Learning how to bookbind and making books was brilliant. Harsha and Wayne were so kind and understanding when we couldn’t work it out. They gave clear instructions as to what we should expect of the day too.

Kathleen Painter Attended Aug 2026



Harsh and Wayne were helpful and charming. I left feeling I'd gained a new skill.

Wendy Attended Jul 2026



Attended with grand daughters aged 9 and 18 years old. Thoroughly enjoyed it and suprised at what we created. Well organised and very welcoming atmosphere.

Clare Jones Attended Jul 2026



What a lovely couple who run these crafting activities. Very chatty and friendly. Had a great time with my friend completing our faux stained glass. Beautiful setting, very tranquil and peaceful.

Elwira Kurzawska Attended Jul 2026



Lovely relaxing day retreat spent creating a Sari fabric journal under Harsha's expert guidance. Abbey Grange is such a perfect venue and we were fortunate to be able to craft outside in the the shade of a parasol. All thoughfully organised by Harsha. There was an extensive lunch menu and it was delicious. Visiting the craft/gift shop is also a must. Highly recommend the day

Claire Ludlam Attended Jul 2026



Absolutely fabulous day crafting outside in the lovely garden of the tearooms - a perfect setting! Highly recommended

Harsha and Wayne were both really sweet and friendly. They explained the technique and helped us throughout and were also happy to extend our time a little as we overran. A really nice session for your wellbeing and taking some time out for yourself whilst learning a new skill. Thank you :-)

Parabolic stitching is very relaxing to do. It’s quite easy to learn but the final result is very pretty and eye-catching. The choice of cards to do the stitching on was really lovely, with a selection of both flowers and insects.

Jean Attended Jan 2026



As usual I really enjoyed this workshop. Harsha and Wayne are always welcoming, helpful and informative, it's always fun to learn a new skill in a friendly environment. It was a lovely opportunity to meet up with fellow crafters as well.

I attended a few classes with Harsha and Wayne and really enjoy them, they’re a great opportunity to learn some new skills and meet like-minded people in the craft community. We learn how to make front and back covers and buying these to a paper signature to create a book. We will be looked after and I’m really pleased with the book I’ve made.

I learnt macrame knots. My teacher was very kind and helpful. My teacher was also very patient as I made a few mistakes at the beginning, but managed to get the hang of it by the end. The materials were very good. The venue was nice and warm and in a beautiful setting.

Ana Attended Dec 2025



Loved this macrame star class, the knots seemed confusing at first but we quickly got the hang of it and enjoyed creating the star with spirals hanging below.

Carol Grimmett Attended Dec 2025



What a wonderful class….. I am now the very happy owner of a stunning macrame star.
I very much enjoyed every aspect. The venue was very nice, wonderful and plentiful materials and Harsha was an excellent teacher to the seven of us. I would definitely recommend this craft class.

Harsha and Wayne always deliver relaxed but enjoyable craft sessions. You often find you come away with something lovely, handmade and to a standard higher than you thought you could.
Harsha explains things very clearly and is always happy to help - and has endless patience.

Lovely class, everything was well explained and all materials provided is a real bonus. Thank you very much and I look forward to doing more classes with you

Amanda Attended Aug 2025



Great course!
Decorated a pencil case (there was also a bag option).
Never tried block printing before but really happy with what I did.
Plenty of time to practice first and good selection of colours and block stamps to choose from.
As usual Harsha and Wayne were very welcoming.
Harsha took us through the block printing process and gave us useful tips.
Didn’t think we would have enough time but actually it was just about right time wise.
