"I was really nervous coming into the 5 week Beginners course, and knew absolutely nothing about sewing.

I have now completed a garment and my confidence in sewing has grown massively.
Precious is such a lovely tutor, very supportive and kind. Can't is not in her vocabulary and she really champions her students. Everything in the lead up to making the garment was great for preparation. I didn't realise there were so many!

Thank you Precious, I can't wait to attend another class!"

"I’m glad I enrolled in the sewing course with Precious. All the concepts/ techniques were taught in a way that can be easily remembered.

The learning environment is excellent and all materials needed in the classroom provided.
Precious would welcome questions and patiently answer all questions.

I always looked forward to the weekly classes and I can’t wait to add more skills to what I already acquired."

"I recently took the intermediate sewing class with Precious at Hyness School of Design and had a fantastic experience.

Precious has a clear and approachable teaching style, and she takes the time to explain techniques in a way that’s easy to follow.

The location is ideal with good parking. I also liked that the class sizes are kept small, as it allows for more individual attention and support when needed."

"A Wonderful Introduction to Sewing, Highly Recommended!

I recently completed the beginner's sewing course at Hyness School of Design and I can honestly say it was one of the best decisions I've made. Over five fantastic weeks, I gained so much more than I expected.

Precious is an incredible teacher, patient, clear in her explanations, and genuinely supportive and encouraging throughout. She created a warm, welcoming environment that made learning feel enjoyable rather than daunting, which is exactly what you need as a complete beginner.

The course itself was brilliantly structured, covering a great range of skills at a comfortable, manageable pace. Nothing felt rushed, and by the end I felt like I had a solid foundation to build on. I'm now feeling genuinely empowered to take on my own sewing project, something I wouldn't have dreamed of before starting!

Beyond the skills I picked up, I also had the pleasure of meeting some lovely people along the way, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable.

What's also great is that there are further courses available, so I'm already looking into what's next. I'm really glad I took the course and can't wait to see where this new skill takes me."
