Create with confidence

My Approach

Crafting should be enjoyable, confidence-building, and accessible to everyone. My sewing workshops are designed to be supportive and hands-on, whether you’re just starting out as a beginner or looking to expand your skills. Sharing knowledge, encouraging creativity, and helping others feel proud of what they make is what I love most.

And if it sparkles or glitters, I’m probably a fan! ✨

I can’t wait to welcome you to a workshop in Cardiff and get creative together.
