"What a wonderful class we had. It was so relaxing and so well explained, we had no worries we could not do it. And the result looks just perfect. I highly recommend this class to everyone, if it is just to learn a new skill or just to spend some quality time during weekend."

"Lorna was very welcoming and very patient. She gave alternative methods for some of the trickier parts of the bookbinding. Very comprehensive detailed kit sent out in the post before the workshop. Made a lovely hand-bound notebook which looks quite professional. Finished in time for a question and answer session which was very useful."

"This course was bought as a gift for me and I was very satisfied with how the course was lead. Everything that was needed for the workshop (except for a pair of scissors!) was sent well in advance and the finished product was just beautiful. There was plenty of time for each step of the book making and everything was explained very clearly. Would highly recommend."

"This online course was lots of fun. The kit sent out ahead of the course contained everything we needed. Lorna guided us through the whole process in easy to follow steps and was willing to repeat instructions for the tricky knots in a straightforward way until we were successful. I also enjoyed all the interesting comments about the history of the technique we were using. I cant wait to start using my little notebook and am already planning on making some larger sketchbooks with watercolour paper for journaling. Highly recommended!"

"Great course. Great teacher. Thank you Lorna for a really lovely, productive and inspiring workshop. A box arrived with everything we needed apart from scissors. Couldn’t have been easier. Just 5 of us on the course and Lorna patiently took us through and explained each stage, weaving in stories of traditional bookbinding methods and her own amazing introduction to the craft. It worked remarkably well on zoom with the camera honing in on different processes and easy to see and understand. Lorna helped anyone who was stuck without making a big deal of it just encouraging and telling stories of her own Challenges on the way. We all created gorgeous notebooks with lovely cloth covers. A real delight. It’s been very inspiring and Lorna generously offers on going support if needed. Really recommend this course and Lorna as a teacher."

"Lorna was a great teacher - clear, patient (especially when I just couldn't get my knots right!) and encouraging. The small class size (6) meant that she could help if anyone got stuck. She shared interesting information about the history of bookbinding and her own story of how she got into it as we worked, which added value to the experience. All materials were supplied well in advance and were of high quality. I am delighted with my notebook and would highly recommend this workshop. You don't need to be at all 'arty' or have any experience to come away with a really pleasing result. I was given the workshop as a present, and will definitely gift it to others too. Thank you Lorna!"

"We booked this course for a way of three friends in different places (and countries) to get together and celebrate a special birthday. We all like creative activities and an online book binding course fitted perfectly. I'd seen it had good reviews and I now know why. Lorna was a delightful teacher, prepared, clear and with a clear passion for the topic. She was patient and had useful stories and anecdotes that helped us really enjoy the session. In addition we all came away with beautiful, professional looking hand bound books. Wonderful. Thank you so much Lorna"

"I’m delighted with the beautiful notebook I made on the course. I was lucky enough to do a course in person at the Burford Literary Festival but I’m sure it will work really well on Zoom as you can get a close up of the demonstration more easily. Lorna was so patient and enthusiastic and I learnt not just about bookbinding but lots about independent publishing. A lovely way to spend a couple of hours learning a new craft."

"I did this course over the summer, and have only just discovered how to leave a review! Sorry for the delay Lorna! This was a fantastic morning - the act of creating your own book is so relaxing and rewarding. Lorna was a fantastic guide - I can't really believe she managed to do that all over Zoom. And the book you end up with feels so special, and of such high quality you feel like you'll never buy your own (premade) notebook again! Highly recommended"

"I did this course remotely and was very impressed by how the course was run and Lorna's very friendly and enthusiastic manner which invited the whole group to bond. Lorna took the time to repeat a process if anyone struggled, and was very patient in answering all of our questions. It helped that all the book elements were already pre-cut and prepared for us. I would strongly recommend this course to all bookbinding beginners just to understand some of the basics of bookbinding techniques."

"What a fantastic morning! I thoroughly enjoyed both the course and the social aspect. It was a good two hours of learning, at an pace that was manageable yet in depth enough to learn a little history and techniques. I would highly recommend & look forward to doing another course with Lorna who was an excellent tutor, thank you"
