Sharon Thomas reviewed: Beginners 1 Day Traditional Stained Glass Course

"My husband and I took this course with Gill and we were really happy with our creations. Gill helped us through the process from start to finish, she’s clearly very knowledgeable, knows her craft and loves what she does. She helped us choose a design and made every stage easily achievable. She was also very sociable and friendly throughout the entire day and a brilliant lunch was included in the price."

Gill Rogers responded:

"Many thanks Sharon for your lovely review and it was so great to meet you both. Hope you enjoy displaying your beautiful stained glass panels, they looked stunning! Best wishes, Gill x"

Chloe Knight reviewed: Beginners 1 Day Traditional Stained Glass Course

"Gill was a lovely stained glass teacher with lots of experience. With a small class of only 2 of us if we ever needed help she was right there, and I came away with a really beautiful stained glass piece to say I had never done it before. Thank you for the great introduction to stained glass. Right below the studio was also the cafe for lunch - the panini and brownie were amazing! I would definitely recommend."

Gill Rogers responded:

"Many thanks Chloe for your wonderful review and so thrilled you enjoyed the course. Hope to see you again sometime in the near future! Best wishes, Gill x"

The course was unique as I had one to one tuition throughout and could experiment with cutting and shaping the glass. I learnt so much and came away with a lovely keepsake from the day. Keen to have a go at home now and will be returning to develop more skills in the future. Lovely day , thank you ❤️"

Roger Watkins reviewed: Beginners 1 Day Traditional Stained Glass Course

"We had a wonderful time learning how to work with stained glass and we are extremely proud of what we managed to produce in just one day with Gill. Gill was an inspirational teacher, very encouraging and insightful - not just with the glass techniques but also in managing to lead us complete novices through the processes involved. Stained glass work is an ancient skill but so worthy of translation into the modern world. We are already planning some projects around our home. Thank you so much Gill."

"Many thanks Roger for your wonderful review, it was so lovely to meet you and Gail. Hope you enjoy displaying your stained glass panels, they looked absolutely stunning! All my very best wishes to you both Gill "

Thank you, Gill!"

Michelle, Troon Ayrshire reviewed: Beginner's Traditional Stained Glass 2 Day Course

"This course is outstanding and I can't recommend it highly enough. I'm delighted with my two finished pieces from being a complete novice at the start of my 2-day workshop. Both traditional lead and copper foiling techniques covered admirably in the 2 days. Gill was so skilled and enthusiastic and it was infectious. The pace was relaxed yet productive and tuition excellent throughout. A fab lunch and cakes too, all top notch. Don't delay, book today. I'm off to buy supplies to take up a new crafty addiction courtesy of Gill. "

Sophie reviewed: Beginner's Traditional Stained Glass 2 Day Course

"I'm so chuffed with what I was able to achieve over a weekend, with plenty of Gill's help (and her aircon unit keeping us cool!). As a complete novice to working with glass, the chance to bring my own design to life and come home with a completed project was brilliant. I can't wait to install my new panel in my house and enjoy it now. The rural setting of Gill's studio is beautiful and the farmshop cafe below provided us with delicious lunches and cakes for the weekend. The weekend felt like a real treat - thank you Gill!"

Gill Rogers responded:

"Thank you so much Sophie for your lovely comments, it was such a pleasure to meet you and I had such a fun weekend too! We’ll done you for creating such a stunning window and can’t wait to see a photo of it installed above your door?? Many thanks and hope to see you again sometime in the near future when you get chance to visit us. All my very best wishes Gill x"

Catherine Rodgers reviewed: Beginner's Traditional Stained Glass 2 Day Course

"Had a wonderful weekend being inspired by Gill. Stained glass was a totally new thing to me and Gill was an excellent tutor. I was able to make a couple of pieces in different techniques. It was a bonus being able to work on my own design, rather than having to complete set pieces. This is a very flexible approach to teaching and appreciated. Unfortunately I was feeling the after effects of Covid, but Gill was adaptable and accommodating to ensure I could complete my pieces. Thoroughly recommend this course."

Gill Rogers responded:

"Many thanks Catherine for your lovely comments and so thrilled to hear you enjoyed the course. It was such a pleasure to meet you and hope you enjoy your beautiful stained glass panels, they looked absolutely stunning! Best wishes Gill x "

KRISTINA WIGGETT reviewed: Beginners 1 Day Traditional Stained Glass Course

"I did the private 1:1 traditional stained glass 1 day course. The whole experience was FANTASTIC - I had a wonderful, fun day. Prior to the course, Gill had emailed me some extra info and driving directions - which I really appreciated. On the day itself, from the moment I met Gill, I realised it would be great day. Gill is AMAZING: she has a great personality and she is a extremely good teacher: very knowledgeable and very patient. Gill had prepared a table for me with an information pack, tools and a bottle of water. (she also made me a few cups of tea as well) I was a complete novice, but I didn't need to worry: Gill explained every step of the process, showed how to do things and then let me do it. When things didn't go always as planned, Gill helped me again and again with a lot of patience. We also had a very nice, very relaxing lunch in the onside café - very yummy and all homemade. In the evening I went home with a beautiful suncatcher and a lot of knowledge. I couldn't have wished for a better teacher and I can recommend this course 100% !"
