• 5/5 from Tiffany, attended Aug 2025: I am very new to seeing and wasn't really sure on what to ask for help with in terms of my machine. Hannah was so incredibly helpful! She suggested we discuss a project that I wanted to work on. Not only have I left feeling confident to start my project, I have learned new functions on the machine, how to do a button hole and add buttons! I think this class was great and cannot praise Hannah enough!
• 5/5 from Leah Martindale, attended Aug 2025: My daughter and I went together and absolutely loved it! Hannah was so knowledgable and patient, and she gave us huge confidence in knowing how to start. We have come away absolutely inspired, with a new machine that was the cheapest rather than most expensive option, recommended by Hannah alongside some other options. There was no sense of any upselling efforts or anything - just complete honesty and enthusiasm. Could not recommend this highly enough!

• 5/5 from Zita A, attended Apr 2025: Hannah is an excellent teacher, extremely knowledgable as well as warm and personable, this was exactly the introduction to sewing I needed. The session was well-organised and structured with a good balance between demonstration and practicing myself. I came in not knowing anything about my sewing machine, and left feeling confident in threading the machine, making multiple different types of stitches, and with a clear understanding of the next steps I need to take on my sewing journey.

We were very grateful to Maisie that she agreed to do this for us. Thank you very much.
• 5/5 from Mia Leader, attended Mar 2025: My daughter & I had a very enjoyable workshop with Hannah in Northampton. Hannah was very knowledgeable and helpful, we enjoyed the session very much. I would definitely recommend this session.
• 5/5 from Anonymised ClassBento customer, attended Feb 2025: I had a sewing machine gifted and wanted to learn the basics of using the machine. Hannah was brilliant at explaining everything I needed to get started using the machine from Winding the bobbin, threading the needle and even provided tips on maintenance. I practiced several stitches and hemming. Hannah also showed me how to adjust the tension of the thread and what effect this has on the two threads. I was really pleased with Hannah and how she explained everything aswell as her patience as she was there to guide me as I started to use the machine. The venue and materials were great, as is required. What I liked most was the teaching aspect - Hannah covered all the points that I had as a beginner and helped build confidence in using the machine independently as well as providing additional resources that I can access to continue to develop my skills in sewing.

• 5/5 from Christine Mabiza, attended Aug 2024: It was a great session although short but concise. Simplified and understood by my daughter.

• 5/5 from Brad Simpson, attended Oct 2023: Pat is like the Yoda of sewing; help you she will! I learnt more in an hour with Pat than I certainly would’ve staring at a pattern that might as well have been in a foreign language. Pat talked me through and translated the pattern into plain English as well as going through the practical sewing machine bits too. Finally Pat helped me identify the other bits and pieces I needed to really kick start my project. Great value and much better than any book or online video.

If you need any kind of guidance or have any questions this is a brilliant way to learn! Thank you so much!
