Textiles class
Thoroughly enjoyed making the Christmas garland. I have previously done a macrame workshop but it was nice to go over some of the knots again and be shown how to make the trees and star - will definitely be making more. Excellent teacher too.

Lovely hour spent learning how to create poinsettias. Made 1 during the workshop and then 3 more after. Thought I might try and put them on a wreath too.

Floristry class
Lovely hour spent making the wreath. Was at the right speed to be able to complete it in time. I have done several workshops in the past year but still learn something new. The quality of the kit was excellent but I may add some extra additions such as spiders etc.

Floristry class
It was nice to do a wreath workshop without using a glue gun. I have done the pampas grass wreath before so this was my second go using wire. The workshop states it was for 1 and 1/2 hours but we were finished well before time.

Floristry class
As always a great class. Thoroughly enjoyed making the wreath, the colours are lovely and even though I had a power cut so missed a small part of it I was able to rejoin and Paula got me up to date with what I missed. Excellent kit.

Painting class
Very interesting, I have previously done the British wildlife watercolour workshop which was also good, but this was useful as a reminder and hopefully I will be able to produce some Christmas cards with the Robin on them. Kit, as always is of high quality and well worth the money.

Craft class
A excellent workshop, as usual. I have been on several workshops and all have been good. Really interesting to learn about loom weaving. The kit arrived well in time and of good quality. I made the wall hanging, deciding to do it a bit different from the design, but that's the fun about crafts. I'm already doing a second one.

Textiles class
Really interesting workshop, the kit arrived well in time and was of very good quality. I had no knowledge of macrame but was talked through the knots needed and although there wasn't time to complete the plant holder as it was only 1.5 hours long I have nearly completed it now.

Woodworking class
Great workshop - it's not as easy as it seems, but you get a thorough explaination of what you need to do. I however, enjoyed learning a new craft. The kit that is supplied was good

I was the only one on the workshop so was really lucky. I had some knowledge of knitting but developed my skills with casting on and off. I thoroughly enjoyed the workshop and look forward to completing my cacti.

Painting class
I thoroughly enjoyed learning some of the techniques for watercolour painting and ended up with a quite presentable picture of a bee Will definitely be doing some more painting.

I was the only one on the workshop so it was lovely and relaxed. I learnt so much and has given me all sorts of ideas for my other projects. Looking forward to the next workshop now!

Drawing class
A really enjoyable and relaxing workshop. Learnt some good techniques for developing my sketching, would definitely recommend it.

Craft class
Even though the workshop was 1.5 hours some of the participants were struggling at the start and it got a bit confusing. I think it would be better to have this workshop in 2 parts - first 1.5 hours learning the basics and then another 1.5 hours developing the technique. I for one would be willing to pay extra just so I got a better 'hang' of how to crochet.

Beginner's Guide to Brush Lettering
I did the brush lettering on ceramics at Xmas and struggled a bit with that, so that's the reason I did another workshop. This time I found it a lot better, how it was explained and enjoyed it.

Craft class
Very good - never done it before, however, one of my cloches arrived smashed and even though I sent an email as soon as I had checked the box, to get a replacement it has still not arrived so struggled to do the second part of the workshop.

I really enjoyed it - not as easy as it seems - hard to get thin and thick lines! Needs a lot of practicing.

It was a shame that the hessian ribbon was not included, but didn't really matter. Enjoyed the workshop very much, looking forward to doing the Xmas wreath workshop now.
