Vera Peiffer reviewed: Introduction to Frame Loom Weaving

"I had a great time on my very first weaving course with Alice at her studio. The group was small, and Alice gave plenty of attention to all participants. She explained the weaving processes clearly and was always on hand to sort out any problems we had. I thoroughly enjoyed the day and went home with a nice little piece of woven material. I cannot recommend Alice's course highly enough!"

"This is a fantastic workshop! Alice is a patient and knowledgable teacher, and having 4 people per workshop works very well- everyone is able to have some one to one time (and there were a lot of laughs to be had!). The studio is beautiful and easy to find, very warm and lots of light, and full of creative pieces from Alice. I will definitely be signing up for another workshop. 5*"

"Once again I cannot praise Alice enough, having attended her Introduction to Loom Weaving a few weeks ago I was itching to get stuck into the macrame course! Beautiful calm environment, fabulous coffee and highly influential teaching. I was so sad to leave as I’d gotten used to coming each week to learn something new! I’ve learnt so much valuable information from Alice herself, let alone her workshops. I could go on for hours, I cannot recommend her enough. She’s fantastic."

Eloise Kent reviewed: Macrame Pot Hanger Workshop

"Alice is a great teacher, she taught each person the knots individually to their needs, she then helped us all with ideas and how to recover from mistakes. The others of the course were great like-minded crafters. Felt very comfortable and enjoyed the day. Lovely studio and lovely area, I hope to book onto the weaving course because Alice is so clever and all her products are amazing and so inspirational."

"Alice is a very creative little being. She provided a welcoming and warm environment, spent equal time with each of us and provided encouragement throughout the day. As someone who hasn’t attended a workshop on their own before I personally found it an achievement that was made so much easier by her kindness and positivity. I can’t wait to learn Macrame with her next week! (Yes I booked two courses) - she’s just that good!"

Hannah Barrington reviewed: Introduction to Frame Loom Weaving

"Really enjoyed this course, had such a lovely day, the class size was perfect and meant everyone could have as much help and attention as they needed. Alice is a great teacher and her relaxed style of teaching created a very warm and welcoming atmosphere. There is plenty of time to actually complete the weave and I feel like I learned enough to be able to do this at home too."

"What a wonderful time I had when I spent the day with Alice learning how to weave. Alice was an excellent Tutor, always giving us clear and concise instructions. When ever anyone needed some extra help ,she had already anticipated that her support was needed,which was very reassuring. The whole day was a really positive experience.The studio was comfortable and in a delightful location which was a real bonus"

Kelly reviewed: Introduction to Frame Loom Weaving

"Alice is lovely and the hot walls a fantastic environment to spend a day crafting and making with like minded people. On the day we completed a project from setting up the loom at the beginning of the day to finishing off our weave with tassels before we headed home. I would highly recommend the workshop."

Laura Butler reviewed: Introduction to Frame Loom Weaving

"What a lovely way to spend a day. In no time at all we were making our weaves and experimenting with different wool, textures and techniques. Alice is a great teacher and so talented. Working in her studio was really inspiring as we got to be surrounded by her amazing work. The location at the Hot Walls was also great- creating a perfect opportunity to scour the beach for driftwood afterwards!! I bought a loom from Alice to experiment at home and I'm addicted. Thanks so much- see you soon!!!"

"I went on Alice's workshop last weekend in Gunwarfe Quay. I really really enjoyed the day. I actually managed to use 3 colours which I haven't done before. I would love to do another day in Alice's own studio. I would recommend this relaxing but informative workshop to anyone interested in textiles."

"I really enjoyed my first try at weaving on a frame loom with Alice. All equipment was supplied including materials. Alice's instructions were clear and she gave individual tuition when required. She has inspired me to do more and I will attend another workshop. It was a wonderful day."
