Sewing and Craft School

I was walking down Haverlock Street a few years ago and saw the sign for the sewing school I decided to go in. That was one of the best decisions I made. This lady, Jacky is one amazing person. In the time I have been with her she has shown me how to do silk ribbon embroidery, hardanger, patchwork, cross stitch and lastly how to crochet. She has the patience of a saint because I not the easiest person to teach. But she lets me have my say throw my toys out my pram and then explains why we do things a certain and yes I always end up with the most beautiful works. I now class her as my friend and thoroughly enjoy her company and enjoy my time sewing and exploring new aspects of crafting. If anyone wants to have an amazing time learning new skills this is the is the school you need to contact. It comes highly recommended.

Jacky is an amazing teacher and has the patience of a saint! I particularly find verbal instructions difficult and prefer to see something visually. She 'held my hand' and guided me through adding a large button hole into my dog's coat so that I could clip her car harness into the seat belt without removing the coat. Without me asking for a video Jacky found the perfect one on YouTube & sent it through quickly. A fantastic service even though I'm 200 miles away. Many thanks Jacky xx

Before going to Jacky's sewing school, I would have considered myself quite an accomplished sewer; I've made various gifts and clothes (including my own wedding dress) but with Jacky I actually learnt to do everything properly! She gave really clear instructions and guidance on how to make my garment and all with patience and a smile! I had picked up some very bad habits and shortcuts which led to me often not wearing the things I had made. Jacky teaches you everything from start to finish and leads by example. I had such fun doing the course with Jacky and I intend to go back in the future - it's a perfect course for beginners but also people like me who never learnt things properly the first time around! You're guaranteed an outfit worthy of wearing and weekly giggles!
