Can’t praise Mary’s 2 day workshop enough. Amazing to see how my own skills developed over the two days thanks to Mary’s extremely high level standard of work and tuition. It was great to have a teacher who knows her stuff. I travelled down from Donegal and the journey was well worth it, as I now have the know how to( at the very least) carry on making small pieces myself as a truely rewarding hobbie. Thanks again Mary.
