"A great course. Well staged in a step by step relaxed way. Emma was welcoming and friendly and I felt at ease in asking questions about the processes. I understood what I was doing and why and made a lovely bespoke felt pouch to take home. Would highly recommend this course which is excellent value for money." Bobby Child

"Hello Emma, thank you for teaching us the pouch making workshop, it was fun & the project scale is easily achieved at home. I can make my very own designer bag now, and it’s quite eco friendly I feel. A practical little project. If I see some bags I like in shops, I could take them as ref / inspirations, using wool to mimic the designs or to create my own. I’ve been learning so much from Emma for the past few courses in the past few months, I look forward for the next one." S. Chan
