"Whilst I did learn something new from this course, the experience was unpleasant. The provider had her mother with her and they constantly contradicted each other. They spent the entire 3. Hours I was there bickering. "

Sam C-P reviewed: Shoemaking workshop

"Had a wonderful time. Loved a small group, so had plenty of attention for everyone . Had a good laugh, Kate is an excellent tutor and lovely person😃 It was so much fun making shoes and they didn’t turn out too bad for a first attempt👍 Excellent communication, so I knew what I wanted to make and what I would need to bring as well, although included in the cost are the materials you would need (unless you choose a more complicated shoe) so excellent value for money. Highly recommended, a wonderful day out, lots of laughs and fun, and you come away with a wearable pair of shoes 👍👍👍😃"

Julie reviewed: Shoemaking workshop

"Kate knows her stuff and takes you through all the processes needed to make a shoe with clarity and patience. I was quite slow - my skill at the handstitching of the lining to the upper left a lot to be desired, and bless her, she pitched right in to help make sure I did leave with a finished pair at the end of the day. Thanks Kate."

"This was an interesting experience. Kate was lovely and very encouraging as we went through the steps for making our shoes. I was a little slow but Kate was very patient and, although I took longer over the time we had, Kate was very understanding and allowed me to continue without making me feel guilty or uncomfortable. Thank you Kate. "
