Milou is such an amazing teacher! She is very knowledgeable and patient, as well as being willingly to answer any and all questions I had. I really learnt a lot, gained a new found love for embroidery and lots of ideas for future projects. Milou clearly loves what she does and her enthusiasm and bright personality really made the class fun and enjoyable. I could not recommend this class enough and anyone lucky enough to be taught by Milou will not regret it.

It was relaxed and friendly environment to learn something new. Milou was a great teacher and a really interesting person. She taught us some basics in the morning then let us use this information in the afternoon to get creative. A brilliant day!

I really enjoyed the workshops ran by Milou, having started doing a embroidery at home using internet tutorials it was good to have proper guidance and advice. The small group size allowed plenty of time to ask questions and for Milou to come round and assist with stitches.
