Where it all began … I first learnt to crochet as a child and spent hours and hours making, sewing, knitting and learning every new technique possible in art, craft and design. After a degree in Graphics and with 16 years experience teaching Textiles, Graphics, Art & Design and Design & Technology I strongly believe in developing my own practice to be the best tutor I can be. I am continually inspired by my students of all ages so it's definitely and 2 way street!
"Rachel is a fantastic teacher! She gives clear instructions and is very supportive helping her students achieve pieces of pewter jewellery to be proud of. All 34 ladies enjoyed the sessions and were full of praise for their tutor. Well done Rachel (and Stu!)"

"We had the most amazing day yesterday learning how to use silver clay. Everything was brilliant from start to finish!
Rachel is a fabulous teacher…clear, patient, helpful, knowledgeable, inspiring, relaxed, friendly and fun…as well as highly skilled!
It won’t be long until we’re back to try something else and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a thoroughly brilliant experience! 😊"

"I purchased the 3hour starter book binding course as a birthday present to myself and l can honestly say l enjoyed myself thoroughly, Rachel was a brilliant patient teacher and the sketch book that l made turned out looking really professional thanks to her input and knowledge. I would recommend this course to anyone that is looking to get into bookbinding or just wanting to make their own personal item.
Oh fantastic tea and coffee making skills too after clarifying how l like my tipple l could stand my spoon up in my brew, excellent!!😁"
Gifted Crafts Company responded:
"Thank you so much Alex. So thoughtful of you to take the time to review and so kind! It was a pleasure to work with you and I was so impressed with your skills and the book you made. But we both know it’s all about the tea! 😉 Thanks again and all the very best. Rach "
