Students about this course

''I didn't think I would be able to learn it through an online course, but it turned out to be so! It is explained so easily that it is as if Saskia is standing behind you saying: now you have to do this! And it actually works very well: you can rewind the videos and watch them as many times as you like.”

Ruth

Everything I found inspiring and interesting to learn. A world opened up for me with this course: I learned to shape beautiful fabrics in a new way. You put together a special program that I don't find anywhere else. What I liked most was that I could immediately start working with the techniques you taught me. That I could really make something concrete.

Elvira Loomans

I think it's a great addition to what I do with textiles.

A dream of mine is that once I can do the technique well, I would like to be able to maybe do this for someone as a job.I have actually been following you for a few years but due to my home situation it was not possible to come to Doesburg for training. Now that it is online , so also at my own pace and at a time that suits me, even at night, and also more affordable and without having to be away from home a whole week, this is ideal for me. That has been the deciding factor to take on the adventure now.
