Testimonials

The dressmaking class is wonderful in demystifying how to read a pattern. Freda taught us the necessary skills to make a basic skirt. Highly recommend!

Meghann, Dressmaking Bootcamp, Apr 2023

The course was a fantastic introduction to sewing patterns and skills such as invisible zip insertion, use of interfacing etc. I would very much recommend it to anyone starting to tackle creation of a garment.

Louise, Dressmaking Bootcamp, Apr 2023

The Sew Easy Sewing Skills Bootcamp was a very comprehensive introduction to sewing using a machine. There was such a sense of accomplishment with not one but two projects finished in the two days of the course. I’d highly recommend it to anyone starting to use a machine or considering buying a machine.

Louise, Sewing Skills Bootcamp, Mar 2023

Attended class as a complete beginner, left class with the confidence and basic skill to get creative with my machine.

Eric,  Sewing Skills Bootcamp, May 2022
 
 
The Bootcamp was very good for revising basic dressmaking skills (as well as general sewing and machine skills).  One always gets a lot of helpful tips and it’s nice to meet other people with the same interest.  Freda is a great teacher, always pleasant and helpful no matter how silly our mistakes and of course she is very skilled at sewing.
Rhona, Sewing Skills Bootcamp, Sept 2021
 
 
I want to thank you for an excellent course. Great communication skills and very friendly delivery. For a revision course there was very good tips and I understood the mistakes I made before.

I wanted to let you know that the “Sewing Bootcamp” was brilliant.  I really enjoyed it. Thank you for your time and patience with me, as a beginner I was struggling a little to keep up and you were a great support. I would definitely recommend Sew Easy to anyone wanting to learn. I am practicing away and am just about to put in my first zip, by myself. I will definitely be back.

Barbara, 6 week Dressmaking Course, Sept 2021

Maebh is highly skilled, creates a great atmosphere and goes out of her way to help everyone in the class achieve amazing projects whatever their level.  I can’t believe just how much I’ve learned and how much fun I’ve had over the past few years since I started going to her classes.  She is truly inspirational.

Lynda, 6 week Dressmaking Course, Sept 2021

I have been with Maebh for three years and look forward to her classes every time.She is supportive, encouraging and aware of everyone’s skill level and caters brilliantly to them.It is always an enthusiastic and fun learning experience and one I would recommend thoroughly.

Philippa, 6 week Dressmaking Course, Sept 2021

I look forward every week to my sewing class. Maebh is a fabulous teacher, patient and supportive taking you step by step through a process and differentiates for all levels of experience. She has a passion for sewing and encourages and empowers her students to try new techniques and make garments and quilts etc to a high standard of finish. Maebh offers constructive advice which always adds something extra to your work. Within the class she has created an atmosphere which is non judgmental and allows for sharing ideas and tips.

Anna Marie, 6 week Dressmaking Course, Sept 2021

Maebh, Your ability to give everyone in the group the individual attention needed, while passing on lots of incidental sewing tips, make the evening fly past.  When I want to progress projects in-between classes, I have always been given the addition information to allow me carry on at home.  You are a wealth of advice and understanding which makes the classes informative and entertaining.  Your encouragement to share ideas make it a most enjoyable escape from the norm.  Under your guidance, I have been given the confidence to attempt projects I would not have otherwise tried.
Deirdre, 6 week Dressmaking Course, Sept 2021

“I always wanted to learn how to sew and how to use a sewing machine. Finally I got a sewing machine last Christmas and I booked my place with Maebh Walsh: beginners Bootcamp, two full saturdays. I must say i had never used a sewing machine before and i left with a tote bag which i made myself… the first day!!!!!!! You start learning all the basics ( believe me, you need to know how the machine works before you touch it!!) and once you know that Maebh guides you and you SEW!!! Maebh makes you feel confortable and is always there to help and clear doubts.
I really, really recommend this Bootcamp Level one for any one interested in getting the basic sewing skills.”

It’s a great place to sit down, relax and really enjoy learning how to sew.”
