I went to a class to brush up on skills I hadn’t usedfor over 30 years. There were some with more recent experience and one with none at all. With only four in the class Tracy was able to give us all the attention that we needed and we all learnt a huge amount and created a skirt! I’m so glad that I attended. I now have the confidence to have a go on my own!

Jaime and Tracey are the loveliest most helpful tutors, I really enjoyed making a dress with them and hope to attend more classes with them really soon
