    We had a brilliant time at this tufting workshop! Lucy was friendly and supportive, the food was delicious, and we loved creating our rugs while supporting a talented local artist.

    Definitely one of the most fun and memorable experiences you can have as a couple! Lucy was absolutely amazing. She was incredibly helpful, encouraging, and just genuinely wonderful to be around. Her enthusiasm for rug tufting was contagious and made the whole experience feel exciting from start to finish. She guided us carefully through every single step of the process and even when things got tricky, Lucy was always right there to help and guide us. Despite what I think was a difficult design, the end result was beautiful and I can't wait to put this on my wall.
