• 5/5 from Jagjit Singh Chaggar, attended May 2026: We had SUCH a fantastic time with Alena. She put on a private class for myself and my husband to celebrate our anniversary. She then took some inspiration from some ideas we had and designed us some fabulous rugs! She explained everything clearly and took her time from the tufting through to the finalisation of the rug so we could take it home! Would recommend this class to anyone - you will definitely have a fantastic time! Thank you!

She was also very generous with her time when our projects took a bit longer than expected! I thoroughly enjoyed the day and I'm delighted with my rug. The class is great value considering everything you learn, all the materials included, and the fact you get to take home a good sized completed rug. Thoroughly recommended.
• 5/5 from Gareth Brazendale, attended Jan 2026: I was gifted a half day course for my birthday after months of telling the family I'd love to give it a go, and truthfully, it was better than I'd imagined. Alena was such a great instructor, explained everything we were to do and gave all the help needed to finish my piece in the allotted time using quality materials and tools. Conversation flowed, breaks whenever needed, no stress, I had so much fun and recommend anyone to book if you're thinking about it. I came away learning the basics to progress the craft further and understand what set up is required as well as the confidence knowing any idea can be possible.
• 5/5 from Beth, attended Dec 2025: I absolutely loved my half-day tufting workshop with Alena! She explained everything so clearly, and was really helpful and encouraging throughout.

• 5/5 from Chloe Mather, attended Nov 2025: We did this class for my boyfriend’s birthday and had a great time. The teacher was really helpful and talked us through the whole process. The day sounds long, but it went by quickly. Bringing snacks was a good call. We enjoyed creating our designs, and having up to six colours to work with. We’d definitely recommend this class and would be happy to come back in the future.
• 5/5 from Ann, attended Nov 2025: Tufting was a totally new experience for both my daughter and me. Clear tuition was given along with whatever level of support was needed. Alena was extremely friendly and helpful on the day as well as really understanding and flexible when we were organising it. Communication beforehand was fab too and on the day, the afternoon just flew by. We had a great time and were really pleased with our final pieces. Thank you!
• 5/5 from Yvonne Jones, attended Nov 2025: Really enjoyed this course, super teacher Alena who was very knowledgeable and supportive. Techniques were explained thoroughly. Highly recommend the course and I was sad when it was over.
• 5/5 from Alex Vaal, attended Nov 2025: This was an amazing workshop led by a master of her craft. As we had never held a tufting gun before, Alena made it very easy to understand what we needed to do and guided us through the process. We walked away very happy with what we created.

Our finished pieces are so cute and we will definitely be back to make more! Thanks so much!!
• 5/5 from Labake, attended Oct 2025: Booked for my sister's birthday present and had a fantastic time! Alena was a great teacher and we had a really friendly enjoyable time. Really happy with our rugs, as first timers we weren't expecting to produce such great quality but it was all down to great teachers. Venue was easy to find with parking, a nearby cafe etc and we had all of the materials we needed to make whatever design we wanted. Would definitely be back again, very fun and creative half day out! Thank you!

• 5/5 from Joe, attended Oct 2025: I booked the tufting workshop for my wife's birthday, her idea (a very good one as it turns out!). We really learned all we needed to create our rug designs in the time allotted, we were hands on throughout the whole process but had the help we needed to make sure we left with brilliant rugs that we were happy with. Alena made the session light and fun, but also made sure we absorbed the techniques of tufting. My favorite thing about the session was that I was able to send a bit of an ambitious design but Alena helped make it work! My wife liked most that the class was super chill, and that we were never in any rush.
