I love my students! My youngest student is 8, and my oldest student is 84. The only requirements for taking a class with me are a love of craft and a desire to learn more. Read on...

Hen Party
"Thank you so much Catherine, we all had a wonderful time! I was really pleased with how everything went at the hen party. I can’t sing your praises enough!"
-- Laura B. (London)

W.I. Meeting
"Thanks Catherine! We’ve had such great feedback about your meeting already - I think you’ve inspired many an embroiderer amongst our group!! You’re a fantastic speaker, very natural and you make it all seem doable, which is quite a feat for some of our less experienced crafters!"
-- Cathryn S. (London)

Private Class
"Catherine is simply amazing. Her patient and clear way of teaching has helped me enormously, not only by learning a new skill (crochet) but also by helping me to correct bad knitting habits, picked up through my childhood! I get a huge sense of pride when I finish a project, and the first person I show my completed work to is Catherine. And with her natural excitement for craft, she is just as enthusiastic as me! I've never been seduced by the thought of knitting socks or embroidery in anyway, but Catherine has this magical ability to make you just as excited and want to try - so I'm guessing socks and embroidery is next on my list..."
-- Chantelle J. (London)

Craft Club
"Extra special thanks for teaching 15 slightly tipsy women to crochet. As soon as you took over, we all knew we were in safe hands."
-- Fiona at Finishing School (London)

Birthday Party
"Thank you very much for coming along and making my birthday party so unusual and memorable. Everyone has said how much they enjoyed it and they're all going to carry on knitting."
-- Geraldine R. (Bromley)

Private Class
"I immensely enjoy spending time with Catherine. It never feels like a lesson but more like a chat about life and knitting, crocheting or embroidery. She managed to convince me I should stick to crochet, and she was right. I love it now! I have now a few projects on the go, including some for my wedding, all thanks to Catherine."
-- Dr. Nathalie A. (London)

Hen Party
"I met Catherine at my best friend's hen night. Since then, she has taught us all loads. I am making almost all my Christmas presents this year!"
-- J. Bell (Hertfordshire)

Private Class
"Catherine is an inspiring and enthusiastic teacher who adds a modern twist to traditional crafts. She will help you to interpret even the most intricate crochet instructions and unravel the mysteries of complex embroidery stitches. What a find!"
-- Brigitte L. (London)

Private Class
"I had so much fun! You have a very clear teaching style. So many people have tried to teach me to crochet - you are the first to succeed. Thank you!"
-- R. Merrick (London)

Private Class
"Clear, personalised instruction... I was in good hands throughout. Catherine travelled to me and worked around my busy schedule - at a pace that suited me - and we had a lot of fun!"
-- Evelyn G. (Rodez, France)
