• 5/5 from Anne Antonacci, attended Jun 2026: I really enjoyed Danita’s class, and I learnt a lot in the lessons. Danira is very knowledgeable and I look forward to further classes in the future
• 5/5 from Jess Boyce, attended Mar 2026: The class was very insightful, providing an overview of many different hem styles, how to replace a zip and then we had the opportunity to work on our own projects. I took in the waist on a couple of pants and Dinara was very helpful. I'm very happy with how my pants turned out. I feel like I have a much better understanding of how to tackle alterations myself.
• 5/5 from Sharon Spooner, attended Feb 2026: Thank you Dinara for such a fantastic 7 week course, you are an absolutely amazing, gentle, calm and patient teacher! My aim was to get confident with sewing and confident with my own sewing machine that I have had for over 30 years and hardly used, and you allowed me do both. I am also now confident in reading a pattern, fabric requirements in regards to measuring, ease allowance, adjusting for personal sizing, using an overlocker, gathering, putting in a zip, appliqué and so much more, your beginners course is just a comprehensive learning feast that has made me excited about carrying on to more advanced projects, yes including waist coats for my hubby! I look forward to the more advanced lessons I have booked with you and thank you very much for sharing your knowledge and kindly patience with me. Also an absolute special thank you for the hospitality you showed to my husband who is my carer who you welcomed each week into your home as my support, I appreciate it very much Oh and one last thing, I absolutely have to get myself an Overlocker now too!....
• 5/5 from Margaret Shilton, attended Feb 2026: I learnt lots of little tips from Dinara for alterations but also for sewing in general. It was great with no one else in the class I felt very special. Dinara is very knowledgeable and the venue was so close to home it was perfect in every way. I feel even though I do a lot of sewing I may sign up for another class in the near future.
