• 5/5 from Fiona, attended Feb 2026: Cerri is one of those rare people who teach purely by encouragement; even her corrections are confidence-inspiring. I hadn't even touched a sewing machine for absolutely ages, but by the end of the session I'd completed a project, all except for a bit of hand-sewing. The other people were lovely, I felt completely at home, and I have definite plans to return (hope the roadworks get sorted, it's a real performance getting to Riverside House!).

Cerri is very patient and explains different techniques well. She’s also flexible depending on what project I’m working on!
