What My Students Think

It’s always great to receive feedback on my classes

"Absolutely love classes with Gill. They’re a lot of fun and Gill is a fab teacher, giving as much help as is needed. She is inspirational and I love looking at all the other projects she has on the go! I attend her regular Friday class as well as some of her workshops. I learned loads on Gill’s free motion classes, loved making the tuffet, the bags, piped cushions and a mixture of modern and traditional quilt methods. Highly recommend Gill’s classes!"

 “My daughter and friend have just started Teen classes with Gill, and they are loving it. They are hooked; they have such a lovely time – chilling and sewing. And I was so impressed with the finished zipper purse she brought home on her 2nd lesson!!! Wow. So glad we found the classes.”

“The challenge has been a fantastic experience. I am not a quilter, although I like machine embroidery, but this has given me so much confidence to take this further. Excellent teacher, facilitator, and encourager. In fact, all that you want in a teacher-thank you”
A.S.
“It’s Gilly herself who’s such an awesome teacher, listener and caring soul. I had the pleasure for a weekend, learning the block “Storm at sea”. She is so talented and explains each move in a way you’ll remember. Excited about her club. ”
J.M.
“Online courses with GillyMac are beautifully paced with clear visuals and instructions. GillyMac is a gem, she is calm, easy to listen to and totally supportive of all levels of ability. I didn’t know GillyMac before I started my first course but kinda got to feel like a friend. Fabulous FB support and interaction too! I learned much more than I came for. Thank you Gill ”
