Just wanted to thank you for a fascinating workshop, learning how to knot and string beads in your lovely garden studio. You were patient and encouraging, and I certainly feel able to have a go on my own now!

We had a lovely day at Vicky's east London workshop where we made beautiful knotted pearl necklaces under the careful tutoring of Vicky with a tasty lunch also made by Vicky . We highly recommend her workshops.
