Thoroughly enjoyed the the day with Barley and two other lovelies in the class. I took the opportunity to ask Barley ALL the questions and she kindly and clearly answered each one. Communication with Barley is excellent > before, during and thoughtfully after the class, she shared further tips/ knowledge on the project I was working on. The studio is gorge, fully equipped and very much look forward to future workshops.
