This was my first Dabble class and I truly enjoyed myself. Nora is a terrific, enthusiast instructor and a talented artist. I would definitely take another course with her!

Nora is a great teacher and host! Everyone should take a class from her. We learned some history and lingo, and tons of stitches, while sipping tea and eating scones. Perfect for a snowy Saturday afternoon!

LOVED this class! Nora is a great teacher -- everything seemed so easy. And it is wonderful to sit in her beautiful apartment/textile studio sipping tea, watching the snow fall and making fiber art. I went in knowing next to nothing about embroidery and left feeling like I could dive right and make anything I wanted to. It's a really great way to spend an afternoon.
Heads up if you're taking this class in the winter (indoor version) and have a severe cat allergy: there is a cat on the premises.

Great atmosphere, I learned a lot!

I had a great time sipping teas and hanging out with the ladies in my class and, of course, Nora. The back yard was lovely and the atmosphere was super chill. I was able to perfect some of my stitches and finally get a good hang of that french knot! Looking forward to seeing what else Nora dabbles in!

Had a wonderful afternoon learning a ton of different stitches. I just feel like I learned so much. Great, laid-back teacher, very willing to help.

Nora is awesome! She is super friendly and a great teacher. It was a very pleasant afternoon with iced tea and shortbread. Informal and relaxed.
