Such a fun class, lovely tutor and I am newly obsessed with string art!

Really enjoyed this chilled-out couple of hours with like-minded people. This is a great introduction to a simple art. I am rubbish at sewing but could manage this. The teacher Laurie is patient and friendly. Do this class! You won't regret it. (The kit is posted out to you the week before the class with easy-to-thread needles).

The kit arrived in the post with all the things I needed and the card came out beautifully. A lovely activity that is fun and therapeutic delivered by an excellent teacher. Thank you Laurie.
