David reviewed: One day fused glass course at North Norfolk Stained Glass

"This was my first experience of working with glass and Paul is an excellent teacher. I have waited to do a review until I received my finished piece. I am very happy with the end result and a number of people have commented on it very positively. The day of the course was very relaxed and an excellent lunch was provided. Paul's home and workshop are situated in a beautiful quiet rural area and it was lovely to see wildlife such as deer and pheasants. This course is highly recommended. "

Mina Katouzian reviewed: Introduction to simple Ink Drawings

"I attended the pen and ink workshop run by Nina. It was a lovely morning. Nina is always so well prepared and engaging. (I have done one of her other workshops in the past). It was a lovely venue, and Nina took us through the various stages step by step so we gained confidence by building up our skills gradually . It was a very peaceful and relaxing session. I am not particularly good at drawing or 'art' but Nina always makes learning so accessible by her well prepared classes and her positive and calm style. I definitely intend to attend othe3 workshops by Nina in the future. "

Elizabeth Hinchliffe reviewed: Make A Rope Bowl

"A fabulous morning with Annabelle in the most beautiful setting, a stunning workshop surrounded by beautiful views! Annabelle is a wonderful teacher; making the morning such fun but productive and enabling all participants to make fabulous bowls. I was so inspired that I made a bowl the next day. The pastries and cakes were phenomenal, thanks to Alison. This was a birthday present for my sister - I'm sure I shouldn't have enjoyed it quite so much!"

Cynthia Turner reviewed: Wet Felting Bowl Workshop

"I very much enjoyed Rachel's Wet Felting Bowl Workshop. I'd had a go at wet felting before and wanted to learn how to make a bowl. Rachel's a great tutor, patient and friendly, and her instructions are very good, both during the workshop and the written notes we were given, so much so that I was inspired to make more bowls at home. It's a lovely craft to try, very tactile, mindful and therapeutic."

Rachel Morley Feltmaker and Fine Artist responded:

"Hi Cynthia, Thank you for such lovely feedback! It was a pleasure to teach you how to hand felt a bowl and I am thrilled that you have continued to make further bowls. Clearly you have caught the felting bug! Thanks again and Happy Felting! Best wishes, Rachel Morley"

Alison Butler reviewed: Wet Felting Bowl Workshop

"I had a fantastic day with Rachel creating my beautiful felt bowl. Rachel took us through the process of wet felting step by step, and was on hand to help at every stage. We had a wide range of coloured wools to choose from for our bowl, one colour for the inside and one for the outside and I was really please with my outcome. I would definitely recommend this workshop if you are looking for a great introduction to wet felting. Thank you Rachel for a fabulous day ! Alison"

Rachel Morley Feltmaker and Fine Artist responded:

"Hi Alison, Thank you! Great feedback and thank you for coming along to make your own Felt Bowl. It was a pleasure to show you the magic of how felt is made by hand. I hope it has inspired you to make more felt! I look forward to welcoming you back sometime. Thanks again! Best wishes, Rachel Morley"

Dave reviewed: One day welding course for two people

"Two of us attended this one day course, a friend who'd done a small amount of welding with not very satisfactory results and me a complete novice. Brilliant day, Julian is a very knowledgeable chap and he spent a long time with us well over the the allotted time. Lots of hands on practice as well as coaching. We feel confident to now go on and practice further as well as starting repairs/fabrication with our own kit. Can't recommend this highly enough to anyone wanting to get started with welding."
