Fiona reviewed: Raw Fleece to...Tuffets: Making Seat Mats / Cushions

"This workshop was thoroughly enjoyable, an in depth look at a technique I’ve wanted to try for ages. Emma is a fabulous teacher, very welcoming, very knowledgeable and very generous at sharing that knowledge and experience. I came away not only with a lovely seat pad which all of my animals have already adopted, but also the information and insight to know what I would do differently next time, and how I might adapt what I’ve learned."
