Very informative, packed a lot into a short time and I feel confident I can repeat this at home.

I booked the Copy Your Favourite Garment class and Claire was brilliant. She's nice and friendly and helped me understand the mysteries of pattern making. I was a complete sewing novice, but with her help I've already managed to make a shirt! Highly highly recommend!

Claire breaks down the lesson so well - I had opted to take a simple dress to copy during the class and Claire taught me carefully how to draw out the pattern, cut the different sections and we were even able to put together some of the sections. I have only recently started my sewing journey and I'm really happy to have found Claire and I'm really looking forward to booking another session very soon.
