HELEN WAKELING reviewed: Beginners sewing and quilting at Spools and Scissors Suffolk

"Having recently decided to try more crafts I thought that rather than relying on YouTube I would rather have lessons with a real person. Tracey's beginners bag course resulted in my taking home a beautiful unique bag but possibly more importantly the confidence to make more things using the skills learnt. Tracey is a fantastic teacher, sharing her knowledge and giving constant feedback on progress in a such a friendly way. The small class size (there were just two of us on this occasion) meant that there is great supervision and assistance whenever required. Thank you!"

"Had a wonderful day becoming reacquainted with my sewing machine, which had sat in it's box for many years. Tracey was knowledgeable and it was easy to follow her step by step instructions to make a beautiful and practical tote bag. Would highly recommend this workshop."

"I had a fantastic time learning how to make a quilted and lined bag from scratch- it even had padded straps and a proper bottom for it to sit on. We learnt many techniques which will be so useful in terms of building on this experience to make other items. Tracey was very patient and explained things well. It is a small class so absolutely ideal. She also makes delicious cakes and her two dogs are lovely. Book a class today!"

"From the moment I arrived at Tracey’s gorgeous cottage I had a most enjoyable day. Tracey was a great teacher who was very calm and patient with me being a beginner and gave me lots of great advice. I still can’t quite believe I made such a beautiful tote bag. A lovely day not forgetting the yummy homemade banana cake."

"Tracey did an amazing job at teaching me to make a bag in four and a half hours ! I had not used a sewing machine for years. I was empowered to be able to do what I was clearly taught to do. The teacher was very patient and practically showed me what to do. I was always free to ask any questions I wanted to. The location was great, quiet and a very good work space for using a sewing machine which was provided. There was plenty of natural light. I am really pleased with my bag and can't wait to show my friends."
