I recently attended a workshop with Jacquie, and thoroughly enjoyed every minute! She is a patient teacher and explained clearly each step of the way. We were all cutting glass in no time at all, something I'd thought would be quite difficult. The whole process is totally absorbing.
At the end of the session I came home with a glass mosaic hanging for my garden that I was proud to say I'd made myself! ....... Deborah

Our group were complete beginners and in awe of the beautiful creations all around us in Jacquie's lovely workshop. However, within minutes we had been taught all the glass cutting skills required and let loose to choose from the glittering materials surrounding us. Everyone's design was different and each one beautiful. Jacquie demonstrated every step clearly and made it easy, fun and rewarding. We couldn't fail - and we didn't. Thank you - I am looking forward to more sessions...... Mollie

I attended a workshop with Jacquie to make a hanging mosaic for the garden, and can thoroughly recommend anyone wanting to do a similar course with her. Jacquie is a lovely friendly person and made everyone feel at ease, very helpful with ideas and knowledgeable. It was interesting to see that all 6 designs done by the ladies that day were completely different with the wide range of glass and stones that Jacquie has available..... Sue
