Friday (Fortnightly) Bobbin Lace Making - Daytime Mixed Lace Classes (Barnham - West Sussex)
"I knew almost nothing about bobbin lacemaking but the little I saw on YouTube looked like fun so I signed up for Tina's weekend course. Tina has so much knowledge and experience and yet she has the patience of a saint as she helped us learn the stitches. I felt so proud when I managed to actually create some lace. Stephen was great, providing us with many cups of tea and coffee as well as giving a lesson on how to spangle bobbins. I am so glad I went on the course and the bonus is Tina has a fortnightly class so I can keep progressing with her support. Thank you so much Tina & Stephen for a great weekend and looking forward to many more happy hours of lacemaking."
"It was well worth the journey!! I had a brilliant couple of days and Tina was very patient with all the learners. She has taken time to ensure I have contacts in my area so I can continue. Thank you so much!"
