"I did this course with Jo yesterday and it was great fun. Very relaxing and obviously creative, it was lovely to begin to learn a new craft. Jo is an excellent teacher, very helpful and positive. She puts one at ease right from the start and gives her students the confidence to create their own little masterpiece! Thoroughly recommended. Eve"

"Thank you so much Eve, you were very easy to guide through the creative process, such lovely hares literally leap out of a pile of twigs!!"

"I really enjoyed my day's workshop with Jo at Beaminster. All the materials were provided and she gave just the right amount of support. There was a relaxed but purposeful atmosphere and the time flew by. I am absurdly proud of my efforts and brought home a rather fabulous leaping hare...all my own work. "

Anne reviewed: Willow Pig Sculpture at Haymoor Studio

"Had booked a willow weaving day with my daughter on Saturday, and we had such a great time with Jo. Her teaching style was relaxed, she kept an eye on us all throughout the day to make sure nobody was struggling. Quite a long day, and we were both tired by the end, but we really enjoyed our day and are now the proud owners of willow pigs Pringle and Small Pig. The course was held in a lovely location, we are definitely planning on booking ourselves onto another course. "

Allison reviewed: Willow leaping hare sculpture - Studi0ne Bridport

"I enjoyed the day a great deal. Not only was it interesting and fun , I came home with a great talking piece for my garden"

Karen reviewed: Willow Deer Sculpture Haymoor Studio

"I unleashed a new passion in willow sculpting thanks to Jo’s excellent teaching and enthusiasm on the day in this beautifully located centre. Not only were all the deer made on the day worthy of pride of place in our respective gardens but each was individual to the maker. Jo has also been helpful in giving me information and tips on how to go away and continue exploring this craft for myself. I will definitely be booking again for future courses."

Jo Sadler at Forged n Willow responded:

"Thank you so much so Karen, I feel there is so much to be enjoyed in the willow, it just speaks to some of us!! Keep weaving!!!"

Sherrill reviewed: Willow Leaping Hare at Haymoor Studio

"I absolutely loved this course, Jo’s tuition was excellent, enough detail to enable and never too much to make you feel like being back at school! I never imagined in just 5 hours we’d produce a willow sculpture easily as good as ones I’ve seen for sale. I did it with a friend, it was a first for us and there were 6 other people in the group, some with a little experience, all of our willow hare sculptures turned out brilliantly. I’ll definitely be doing another course with Jo in the future… maybe a deer next time."

Jo Sadler at Forged n Willow responded:

"Thank you , I think weaving can really open doors to so much creativity. Glad you came and made such lovely sculpture!"

Suzi reviewed: Willow Leaping Hare at Haymoor Studio

"Jo was a brilliant instructor, very friendly and supportive through out the day, even though she was dealing with a family incident. Everyone's leaping hares looked amazing, could not believe they turned out so well as we were all novices. Thanks Jo for a great experience, I would definitely go back."

Jo Sadler at Forged n Willow responded:

"Aw, thank you so much, everyone made fantastic hares, I was really touched by the kindness from the group too. I am relieved the whole situation turned out positively. Thank you Suzi"

Mole Hogan reviewed: Willow Staghead Sculpture Haymoor Studio

"What a fantastic day, given to me as a birthday present by my best friend. A full day from 9am to 3pm, learning the basic skills but creating the most incredible deer, or should I say Doe. You needed full concentration so no time to think about anything else, but the satisfaction of slowly seeing your creation come together. Jo was a fantastic teacher, giving us support and help when needed and all the encouragement to develop our skills. Thank you for making my 50th Birthday one to remember with my best friend."
