    I personally did not find the venue conducive to holding a class. It was a busy Saturday morning and the cafe was packed full and pretty hard to hear. I think Alicia did her best.

    I enjoyed the event and was thrilled to leave with an almost finished granny square, which I have since finished off and made two more as well! The teacher was lovely and knowledgable. The cafe was very nice but unfotunately very noisy which made it difficult to hear what the instructor was saying at times but she moved around so it was ok. The tea was not nice/not what I ordered. It was nice to meet the other women and I enjoyed chatting with them.
