Haute Couture: Intensive
Amazing class! Jess and Janika were super tutors and brilliant at demonstrating techniques to each of us. There was a lot of time to practice after the practical demonstrations and we could always call on them to work one on one if needed. Tambour beading is a massive skill and I wish the course was much longer! I'm definitely doing this again! -

Hand & Lock Embroidery Courses
Took the tambour beading course and loved every second of it. Steph was amazing as an educator, very patient and helpful. The one and only reason why I'm not giving 5 stars is due to the fact the hours originally scheduled changed. I did not receive any notice of this so I missed the first hour of class and felt rushed to catch up with the lesson. It also forced me to miss some of the "new hours" because I had work scheduled. Bummer. I understand things change but I wish I had some notice to adjust my week accordingly. Hand and lock said they sent out an email but I never received it, and course horse sent me a reminder 2 days prior with the original hours. Better communication between all parties involved would have alleviated any issues.
