This was a lovely experience. Janine and Steve so generous and supportive, guiding me, as a first time weaver, in technique, design and also the safe use of the looms. The studio is light and airy and the equipment beautifully crafted. And, at the end, I had a cushion to show for my efforts! Wonderful

I was the only student on the date that I picked so basically had a 1 to 1. The teacher was patient and helped me loads to pick up the basics of spinning.

We've had a lovely afternoon weaving fabric for a cushion. It's very rewarding choosing yarns and getting the cloth done in time to take a stuffed cushion home - all in one sitting. This was such a refreshing way to celebrate a birthday with friends. Janine and Steve were the perfect hosts.
