Louise Cisneros

What a wonderful introduction to stained glass, a lovely piece of art and excellent teaching. Thank you Jude, I thoroughly enjoyed my weekend and am thrilled with my project. A complete novice, the course is not easy but not too hard either as step by step I got to grips with everything.

Linda Dugdale 

Very enjoyable two days. Hard work but finished project well worth it. Jude was an excellent teacher - very patient and helpful. What looked like it could have been a disaster wasn’t!
