Karen Clark reviewed: Introduction to Inkle Loom Weaving Workshop, Salisbury

"What a wonderful day I had learning to Inkle Weave with Ellie. She worked so incredibly hard to help those who were just learning and was full of encouragement to all who attended. I would love to attend another of Ellie’s courses - she is full of passion for weaving and that passion really shines through."

"Well - if you want a day filled with fun and creativity, then this is the course for you. Ellie is a fantastic teacher- she is clear in her instructions, patient when you are struggling, encouraging to try new ideas. The venue was also lovely and talking to the others on the course was enjoyable. I thoroughly recommend and would love to go back again. Thank you Ellie."
