"Just a little note to say how much I enjoyed and was completely inspired by the outdoor mosaic course. I loved it! Your teaching and encouragement and Katies lovely hospitality were just wonderful. The other ladies on the course were so lovely and everyone had such different style, creativity was there in bucket loads. I was very sad to leave. My slate mosaics have been much admired, my daughters loved my owl. My glass cutters and grosier plyers are on order so there will be no stopping me. I have a few things to finish before I tackle some outdoor stuff (if it ever stops raining). So thank you again for all the fantastic knowledge and enthusiasm you shared with us. I have attached some photos of my "teeny- weeny" tile cutting style which I will still use I am sure but I can also add to my skills, "big & bold", "colourful & joyful" thanks to you."
Lynne, Aberdeenshire
"Thank you as ever for your encouragement. I do love just about everything about making mosaics thanks to you and it’s added great joy to my life, and as you know I do like to laugh and enjoy life!"
Ros, Bedfordshire
"Great work! You are certainly an inspiration to your students, and I have found a new dimension to my work since attending your courses. Maybe I'll manage to attend another in the future. I have lots of happy memories in your company."
Betty, Dumfries
"Dear Jan, thank you very much indeed for the course we attended last weekend in Ullapool. The family were very impressed with my creations that will soon have pride of place in a visible position to be appreciated by all! I have already recommended your course to other friends.Not only was your instruction put across in an understanding and fun way but you also managed to keep us fuelled with teas/coffees, homebaked cakes and the most delicious banquet lunch - single- handedly! Wild Tiles by wonder-woman........."
Carrie, Scotland
"Dear Jan - Huge thanks for the superb courses recently.
I really enjoyed them both. I love your teaching style, and you have given me the inspiration and confidence to tackle anything!! Don't ever srop!"
Maureen, Sutherland.
"Jan - having just attended your course on Sunday 29th March, I just wanted to say thanks for a great day. We all appreciated the amount of time and effort you put in and we were all so pleased with our finished pieces. As I am retiring this year, I have been inspired to take up mosaics as a hobby.
Thanks again for a great day."
Chris, Inverness.
"Thanks for a fantastic day on Sunday. Everyone really enjoyed it and we would recommend this to anyone. Not only was the course FAB but your cooking was excellent and we all had great day out. A few of us are going to go out this weekend and buy some of the tools and some tiles to try again and I think quite a few would like to try an outdoor mosaics course sometime."
Margaret, Inverness.

"I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed the day at Kate's farm... I had dabbled with using traditional tiles on a basic level but your 'organic' method was far more interesting and creative. Thanks again for patiently sharing your expertise."

"We are still on a high from our wonderful weekend with you ... your warmth, generosity, hospitality ... uplifting company ... inspiration at every turn. We all thought we'd died and gone to heaven!"
Alison, Kingussie.
"It was a wonderfully happy and unforgettable weekend. If you had asked me when I was twenty five what I would be doing at seventy five, I would have said "Knitting and dead-heading the roses". Never did I think I'd be up to my elbows in grout, producing such a beautiful work of art! I certainly hope I'll return for more of your excellent tuition, outstanding cooking and warmth and encouragement."
Margaret, Ayrshire.
