Where it all began … I first learnt to crochet as a child and spent hours and hours making, sewing, knitting and learning every new technique possible in art, craft and design. After a degree in Graphics and with 16 years experience teaching Textiles, Graphics, Art & Design and Design & Technology I strongly believe in developing my own practice to be the best tutor I can be. I am continually inspired by my students of all ages so it's definitely and 2 way street!
"Rachel was amazing. Really enjoyed the day, learnt so much in a short space of time. Can't wait to get going on my own. I so recommend this course"

"I purchased the 3hour starter book binding course as a birthday present to myself and l can honestly say l enjoyed myself thoroughly, Rachel was a brilliant patient teacher and the sketch book that l made turned out looking really professional thanks to her input and knowledge. I would recommend this course to anyone that is looking to get into bookbinding or just wanting to make their own personal item.
Oh fantastic tea and coffee making skills too after clarifying how l like my tipple l could stand my spoon up in my brew, excellent!!😁"

You generously shared you knowledge and skills with me and made me feel very welcome.
