CIEL UNIFORM

I have been looking for a very long time for the kind of tuition and courses that Rory and Danielle provide at Centre Front Studio They are fantastic tutors – very skilled, patient and knowledgable. They are also generous with their time and tips. Although i have been sewing on and off for years i am completely self taught and knew i needed to learn proper techniques. I started with the Pattern Hack workshop and decided to do Beginners part 1 course. I plan to continue with courses and workshops for as long as possible.
