We are simply bowled over by the mosaic plaque you have made for us. It is absolutely stunning. The more we look at it the more amazing it appears!
The course was so inspiring, as was the company and the location.
Participants were always thrilled with the art work produced under the guidance of Alison and Peter, who ensured the process was a positive experience for them.
Enjoyed a glorious week mosaicing with superb lunches thrown in! The cottage is a delight in all its features.
