I had a great time doing this workshop with Sarah Campbell. Hugely inspiring and fulfilling. Also met some lovely people. It was my second workshop at Minerva and Lottie is always delightful and professional. Would definitely come back from Spain for another one sometime.

It was a privilege to spend three days with Sarah Campbell and learn all about repeat pattern making. Over the three days I learnt so much about colour mixing, pattern making and the process it entails. It was fascinating to hear about her career and inspiring to see her original work from the 80s through to today. She was able to gently guide us - offering advice and encouragement. I came away feeling enlightened and loved every minute of the course. A huge thank you to both Sarah and to Lottie too for putting us at ease and for making the whole experience so enjoyable and rewarding.

This was such a great course! It is perfect for both beginners and those with more experience. I learnt so much from this course and had such a fun experience. Sarah is a great teacher and so generous with her knowledge and experience. The studio is a lovely setting and a great location, Lottie was so welcoming and friendly. I would highly recommend this course!

Sarah Campbell is an outstanding teacher. Inspiring, informative, patient and kind - and seeing some of her work is pure delight. It's a rare thing to find a true expert who is also so encouraging and gently able to build confidence in others. I honestly loved every minute of the three day course. The studio set up is ideal and Lottie of Minerva very welcoming. It's a gold star recommendation from me!

I had a wonderful time on this course. It was a welcome break from normal life and a chance to slow down, learn something new and meet likeminded people. Most of all the joy of creating something (over tea and cake).

It was a real privilege to have spent time learning the traditional way of designing repeat prints from the legendary Sarah Campbell. It was a joy to see all the amazing work she has created through the years and to begin to understand how she does it. Wonderful....I feel like I've learnt a huge amount.

Sarah inspired, guided and enabled everyone in the workshop to make patterns. The atmosphere in the group was friendly and energetic. I came away really happy. Totally recommend this course to anyone wanting to explore pattern and colour.

Sarah is a wonderful teacher and such an inspiration. Was wonderful to see how she repeated patterns by hand, and to see her archive collections. We were also given an extra class on colour which is what I'd really wanted to learn about, so absolutely loved the 3 day course. Lottie is a great host and the place itself was easy to get to. We had plenty of space and all the resources we needed. Would come back for more courses, longer or weekend courses.
