What others say about us:
Kelly: I would highly recommend Helen as a wonderful teacher with oodles of patience and positivity who put us at ease and gave me the confidence to get back on my sewing machine. (Kelly started with the Learn to Love Your Sewing Machine Course and has since moved on to the Introduction to Dressmaking course to continue her stitching fun!)
Carla: A clumsy student paired with a fantastic teacher can certainly revise a long overdue project. Learning to sew with Helen is highly recommended. I made a dress! Many thanks to her enduring patience! (Carla had four hours of one-to-one tuition on her sewing machine working on repairs, alterations and simple dressmaking – June 2012)
Lily, Young Vic Theatre: The bunting arrived on Tuesday and is WONDERFUL. Just gorgeous. You’ve got the colour and font completely perfectly, I am in awe. Absolutely beautifully made, I am SO PLEASED with it, thank you! (A bespoke commission of bunting in brand-specific colours and fonts for a West End Theatre Education project)
Nicola: Anyone who wants to brush up on their sewing skills to make things, or do alterations, I can highly recommendwww.homespunliving.co.uk. I went along last night and spent 2 hours brushing up my skills and feel (with a bit of practice on my own!) I’d be able to do hemming, taking in and making things from new. (Nichola attended the Make Do Mend & Stitch workshop)
Eleanor: Helen provides a relaxing, calm and creative environment to learn in! (Eleanor attended the Learn to Love Your Sewing Machine workshop)
Anonymous Feedback: The course was really good fun with a great and supportive teacher who will actually teach you how to crochet! Oh, and she makes amazing cakes. (Introduction to Crochet workshop)
