A fun and informative event! I learned a lot about customising and creating scarf tops.  Katie is lovely and a great teacher!

Katie was was super friendly and so kind! She brought lots of material for us to work with and was really encouraging. She showed us her designs for some inspiration and was ready to offer help, but also let us be creative and imaginative in our own ways :) 

Magdalena 

I managed to convert a scarf into a top/dress with the help of lovely Katie Young who showed me how to use the sewing machine and provided the beautiful materials.  Katie was very helpful and friendly and the venue was a beautiful garden square in central london.
