Really fantastic workshop Eleanor was such a great teacher very patient and generous with her knowledge. We were all encouraged to use our imaginations. I will definitely continue to embroider.

Really great introduction to embroidery. I had never done it before, and the tutor Eleanor was really encouraging. You also get to take away some threads to finish it off at home!
Eleanor - 21 February 2018
Eleanor was a great and very friendly workshop leader. Was a relaxed and supportive environment that brought together like minded people. Would definitely recommend.

Patricia - 19 November 2017
I had such a good time and learned so much! It was the perfect activity for a lazy rainy day. I woke up today (day after) so excited and I am sitting here trying to finish up what I started yesterday - I highly recommend it ;)
Domenica - 22 September 2017
Amazing! The London Craft Club team was great! I was a total begginer and it was really easy to learn with them. Also, good vibes and energy!
Lucy - 22 September 2017
The workshop was really fun. Great for beginners and very friendly.
Sorrel - 22 September 2017
The workshop was brilliant. Teacher fabulous and I thought really nice to have someone from LCC there as well. I can't wait to try everything I learnt. Only downside was the venue - lots of flies and not great light, which for embroidery is tricky with my slightly aging eyes. But I would go again!
