What do our Past Students say?

George, Norfolk
I recently took part in the upholstery and covers course with sam and it was absolutely fantastic. I learnt a whole range of new skills to really up my game and learnt so much about different fabrics, products and real life applications to use them. On top of the course being great sam couldn't of been any friendlier and also incredibly patient and knowledgable. Suitable for complete beginners or people with some previous knowledge. Cant recommend highly enough!

Tom, Isle of Wight
I attended the covers course in February 2022. Sam was lovely and the course was easy to follow and workshop well equipped. All materials were provided and she gives great support post program. I am 100% confident going ahead with my own upholstery projects following my time with Sam.
