Margarete reviewed: Free Machine Embroidery

"An excellent course - I had a great time! Ruth demonstrated everything very well and answered all our questions. I learned lots and left very inspired to try free machining on my own machine. It's really amazing what effects you can achieve with an ordinary sewing machine. (And I finally understood what tension is and how to change it and utilise it to get the desired effect.) Absolutely recommended!"

Pat reviewed: Free Machine Embroidery

"A wonderful introduction to Free Machine Embroidery. Ruth's explanations were precise and well structured and she was endlessly patient and helpful while we worked on our finished pieces. I thoroughly enjoyed my time with her in her lovely studio. Thank you Ruth. "

Sue Roughley reviewed: Free Machine Embroidery

"This was an excellent course with a great tutor! My friend had never really machine embroidered before and I had done very little. Ruth the tutor explained everything really well and her material was easy to use resulting in really professional results. The fact that there is only 2/3 people means you get loads of attention in a lovely environment. Highly recommend!"

"I had a thoroughly lovely day learning to Lino print with Ruth. Ruth explained the techniques well and offered guidance and inspiration, in a calm peaceful studio. We created loads of prints throughout the day. "
