5/5 from Casey Pocock, attended Feb 2026: Booked rug tufting with a friend as a birthday treat and had such a great time! It was just the two of us, which made it feel extra special, super relaxed and creative, and we loved getting stuck into making our own designs. Catherine was just amazing ️ — super patient, really encouraging, and great at helping bring our ideas to life! She made the whole process feel so easy, it was so much fun! Such a fabulous, creative experience and something really different - a birthday I will never forget. Totally worth the money and definitely would highly recommend it!
5/5 from Agnes Richard, attended Feb 2026: I cannot recommend Catherine’s tufting workshop enough! She's a brilliant teacher who really knows her stuff and makes the learning process so easy to understand. Helped me navigate the trickier parts of my design and made sure I understood tufting fundamentals and the mechanics of the stitches.The time really flew by because she is such awesome company and makes the whole process so much fun. I’m incredibly happy with how my first rug turned out. If you’re on the fence, 100% recommend giving it a go- you will not be disappointed!
