CUSTOMER HIGHLIGHTS
Felting kit will make the perfect Christmas gift for a crafty, creative person. Cannot wait to see how happy they are to receive such a gorgeous present. Thank you!! Xxx
I can not put into words have absolutely amazingly talented Helen is. She recently did a needle felted Manx Loaghtan for a birthday present. I sent her photos of the ewe from my flock with a message describing this matriarchal sheep. When the package arrived I was shocked at how not alone the likeness of my ewe but also the feel and spark in her eye was the same.
I would recommend Helen to anyone wanting similar work. she really will do you proud. Thank you again Helen!
Wonderful, clear instructions in a relaxed workshop. No pressure environment with a completed lovely result.
Helen is an incredible, patient and able teacher. Instructions were clear and easy to follow and apply. We were a group of eleven and all had individual instruction and created individual felt reindeer.
Just loved learning new ideas, a very happy atmosphere. Helen you made it magic!
Straight into sheep making; Helen was very encouraging and helpful to everyone, a lovely intro into needle felting.
The workshop had clear instructions with a friendly atmosphere and scope for individuality. It was great to have a finished article at the end and something to cuddle.
A relaxed and very informative workshop with clear instructions and help to reassure doing it correctly; keeping the kit was an unexpected bonus.
Very relaxed and friendly workshop; lovely soft tuition but the focus was never lost.
I loved being able to make the needle felted reindeer and never thought I’d have been able to at the start of the workshop! Great day – thank you!
Loved every aspect of the workshop; the atmosphere, the products and course delivery.
I loved the laughter and banter during the workshop and taking home a finished sheep.
I loved being able to relax and concentrate on nothing but felting.
I loved that the workshop made you forget everything except what you are doing; fab escapist day, the cake was fab too!
