Tracy Macaulay reviewed: Macrame Pot Hanger Workshop

"What a fabulous way to spend two hours learning the basics of a new craft. Alice is a very welcoming, calm and patient teacher and I thoroughly enjoyed making my pot holder under her guidance and chatting to the other attendees. The workshop is run in a sideroom off the Porters Lodge gift shop and is a perfect location."

"I really enjoyed this workshop today. Alice is really engaging, patient and all the instructions were very clear to understand. It was a relaxing experience and it felt good to be able to have something home made at the end! Really pleased with the result, and I can't wait to get started to make some more pot hangers for my family. Alice has such a unique artistic experience, I really enjoyed discussing with her about her journey. Thank you Alice!"

"Just done this macramé pot hanger course. Was so pleased to walk away with a finished item. Never thought I would when I started. Got some confidence to carry on now. Will look out for more. Always helps to have a tutor by your elbow for those blank moments....."

"Lovely group of five sitting around a table perfectly set up for our hanging macrame making. Alice is very clear and patient and we all achieved our hangers in about 2 hours (however my shoulders are aching this morning - I am getting old now over 65). I’m really pleased with my achievement and plan to make several more on my own and with friends. Thank you Alice"

"Such a relaxing and inspiring workshop, Alice is an excellent tutor offering really clear instruction and most importantly for me, is so patient. Yards of yarns, knots and non-nimble fingers could lead to a catastrophe but Alice was always there to lend a hand and guide. I'm feeling very inspired and am planning my next macrame pot holder... Highly recommend."

"I did the macrame course yesterday (February 2020) and I very much enjoyed it. Alice is a patient and supportive teacher. I m enthusiastically practicing my knots today - practice makes perfect, even for me - I am 75 and a bit slower than most of Alice's students, but I have been enthused by what I learned yesterday and I throughly recommend the course."
