• 5/5 from Robert Robinson, attended Apr 2025: Excellent sewing class. Brilliant teacher! I got to learn how to use a sewing machine for the first time! It's very exciting to learn a new skill, thank you so much. At the end of the class I felt confident that I could continue to practice at home, however, there was the small matter of not owning a sewing machine. I wanted to rectify this matter and I received some good advice on which machine would suit my needs. As a beginner I wanted something basic and easy to use for minor alterations. So, I'm now the proud owner of my very own sewing machine! Thank you again for your wonderful teaching and advice, you have sewn the seed of sewing in me and I'm ready to hit the peddle! Kind regards R.

• 5/5 from Mathew Kuncheria, attended Mar 2023: The training was in the Hobbycraft store itself and so was easy to find and the venue was fine for the purpose. we were five minutes late for the training but Anna our trainer had no issues with it. We did apologise of course. We were taught the basics as we wanted and we asked a lot of questions and all of them were answered. many of the questions were about which equipment and accessories to purchase and we were pointed to in the right direction. We would like to thank Anna, our trainer and am happy to recommend this training to anyone.
• 5/5 from Rubina Fazal, attended Feb 2023: Loved my 1:1 sewing class. The tutor was brilliant and very helpful. I had all the equipment I needed ready for me. I'll definitely do another class at Hobbycraft.
• 5/5 from Pauline Roberts, attended Feb 2023: My tutor was Anna who was a natural at teaching. She got the balance just right between showing/doing and allowing me to try the various techniques. I was wanting to go back to simple sewing with a machine which I had not done since school nearly 50 years ago, and had narrowed it down to the Midi and the basic Singer. I felt very relaxed and not a bit stupid thanks to Anna and her patient manner. I ended up buying the Singer as I felt the difference in build and quality was well worth the difference in price. I felt it was £15 well worth spending to make the correct decision.
• 5/5 from Fiona Donnelly, attended Nov 2022: Anna my teacher was superb, calm methodical, and highly organised. She taught me how to use a Janice Hobbycraft machine 100s. It was great fun. I learnt to do button holes, Zips and lastly put in a zip. It was excellent learning. I would highly recommend the hour today
• 4/5 from Jo Milne, attended Jul 2022: The session was very good and the teacher was patient with my 8 year old. However when we arrived they did not seem to have our booking (booked online) which was a little disconcerting. Good overall though.

• 4/5 from Alison Mackay, attended Dec 2021: This was the best £10 I have spent in a long time. I learned how to use all the basic, and some of the more sophisticated features of my Singer Confidence sewing machine. The assistant was responsive to my needs, so it was much more like a seminar than a class.
• 5/5 from Catherine Williamson, attended Nov 2021: I wanted to learn some techniques as I was comfortable with the basics kate was great and showed me some tips and let me try things I hadn't done before. Very patient. I think a little over priced for the lesson but enjoyed it.
