Our experience learning Saori with you today was so inspiring, for both H and I. We absolutely LOVED our lesson and 3hrs just flew by, we could have stayed the whole day!! It was a great lesson for Harper to learn that when you love what you do, time flies by! Thank you for igniting the creative spark in us. I’m sure we will see you soon for another lesson.

Thank-you again for a wonderful workshop on Saturday! I came away with so much more than just a new found love for Saori, you inspired me to continue my beginner weaving workshops which I'm sure will have a Saori flare now. You also made me look within myself at my weaving and made me realise that I need to weave more myself, which up until now I just haven't done. So today I'm going to put on a 20 metre warp with no intentions and just weave away until there is no warp left!
