Lovely class with Dawn. Friendly, step by step instructions, in written form too and the project was finished in class so we could take it home.

Recently attended an online arm knitting class with Dawn. She was so patient and lovely we loved the class and ended up with two beautiful blankets. She sent us a copy of the class and full care instructions for looking after out blankets. I was a bit dubious about an online class as I thought i would struggle not being in person, but i could easily follow along and it made for a giggly happy afternoon ... the perfect antidote to lockdown blues. Thanks again Dawn!

I've attended a variety of in-person and online sessions with Sew Confident Chorley and have had an excellent time at each and every single one of them. Dawn is friendly, kind and super helpful, are are the tutors (especially Hannah). I started off with zero knowledge of a sewing machine and am now confident enough to make my own clothes. Thank you Dawn!! Xx

Thoroughly enjoyed learning how to make a variety of styles of curtain tops using eyelets, pencil pleats etc. Would highly recommend, staff are very efficient, tutor Jenny was very experienced and shared her knowledge. I felt very Covid safe with screening, use of sterilised equipment, following all recommended guidance. It was great to be back. Can't wait for my next class booking.

I did the beginners weekend sewing class in October and absolutely loved it. Having never done any sewing before I was amazed what I produced over the two days, and Dawn was a great teacher. I've since bought a sewing machine from Sew Confident and I'm looking forward to doing more classes at Sew Confident in the near future. I highly recommend.

Ive just learned to arm knit a blanket! I can highly recommend an online class with Sew Confident. We arranged a class just for us and it was such good fun, giving us the opportunity to learn a new skill with the support of Dawn. Great for anyone, no matter you experience of crafting, Dawn was patient and a great teacher and we all got the satisfaction of creating a unique blanket for ourselves.

Loved learning to arm knit via Zoom. Dawn explained things clearly and was happy to recap as many times as necessary. Before I knew it my ball of wool was turning into a beautiful blanket. It was so satisfying to see it grow. I look forward to trying other classes. Many thanks <3
