"If you’re interested in learning how to embroider I can’t recommend this course highly enough. Rosemary is an exceptional teacher, she’s patient, knowledgeable and very skilled. I came away from the course wanting to do more and have a feeling I’ll be back!"

Heritage Embroidery responded:

"Thank you Jan for your kind review. I’m so glad you enjoyed the day and feel inspired to carry on developing your new skill. If you do want to come again for another of my workshops you are now certainly capable of doing either gold work or Stumpwork. I’d love to help you again, I enjoyed your company and thought we had a fun day.😄 Many thanks Rosemary x"

"Rosemary is a very accomplished needle woman and experienced, patient teacher. The day was well structured and unpressured. Whilst learning some basic stitches and techniques, we also had lots of laughs, making the whole day extremely enjoyable. I would thoroughly recommend this course. "

"What a delight rosemary is. We had great fun, laughs and the day flew by. Being a complete novice I set rosemary a challenge. By the end of the day threading a needle became second nature and I even managed to do 3 French knot stitches! The session was well structured, demonstrations clear to follow and despite endless mishaps the outcome was surprisingly passable. If you are looking for a fun day with lots of chat, no pressure, and wanting to learn a new skill I 100% recommend this course. Thank you rosemary. Patsy"

We went at my pace and I was given extra thread to carry on at home. She made me feel more confident in my skills. I would recommend the course for anyone who is new and would like to give embroidery a try."

"I enjoyed a wonderful day with Rosemary recently learning the basics of embroidery. There was no rush to move on until we felt I’d mastered each stitch and I was even (finally) able to do French knots by the end of the day! Looking forward to starting my own project now that Rosemary’s given me the confidence :)"

"Rosemary is a professional, knowledgeable teacher, with a lovely well-lit space for doing close work in. I probably chatted too much, but Rosemary is interesting to talk to- even so, she managed to steer me through all the stitches and techniques to give me a good grounding in the initial basics of embroidery!"

Becky reviewed: Embroidery for beginners

"Had a lovely day with Rosemary on the embroidery course. Learnt lots of difference stitches and got plenty of practice with each. I already cross stitch but still learnt a better way of doing French knots than I already knew. I would highly recommend for anyone wanting to try embroidery to spend the day with Rosemary."

"Thanks again for your patience last week. I think it’s safe to say, it’s paid off. I’ve been rather busy! Never thought that even as an adult you can surprise yourself."

Allison reviewed: Embroidery for beginners

"I enjoyed my day. It was good to be broken of some bad habits I had picked up as a child. And put some demons to bed! I haven’t touched embroidery since school days except for a few french knots and blanket stitch on my felt Pied Piper last year. It was that which made me realise I enjoyed stitching but needed help and your course did just that. I was delighted to see your work as well. I am keen to carry on stitching."
