Stained glass weekly classes in Sheffield (South Yorkshire)

Great class. Martin is very helpful. He builds your confidence with one of his basic designs then lets you design/choose your next project. Excellent class and addictive. I have signed up for next term and have started buying equipment from Martin so that I can continue my project over the summer.
