Testimonials
Hi Michelle, since attending your dressmaking course I am delighted to have completed my first ever dress from a pattern. I've really enjoyed your classes (I also attended your Introduction to sewing machine and alterations class) and it is a joy to finally know how to properly use my sewing machine after over 20 years of it sitting idle. So thank you Michelle!
I have been lucky enough to do two courses with Michelle in dressmaking in 2023. .Michelle's classes are relaxed and the pace is set by the students abilities. My confidence in my abilities has really grown with her help. I would recommend any of her courses to anyone who is a beginner or further along in their sewing journey. I would also recommend trying the one off workshops to try new crafts ... A very enjoyable way to spend a few hours !
Excellent course for anyone that's interested, you learn loads and it's a great atmosphere. I'm thoroughly enjoying learning everything. So if you are thinking about it , give it a go. I'm glad l did.
completed a dressmaking course with Michelle and really enjoyed it. The group is not too big so there’s lot of time to get individual support. I learnt so much and really increased my confidence and love of sewing. I’ve just booked another group of classes with her and can’t wait to start again.
