Had fun yesterday making a cyanotype on fabric – will definitely be trying some more.

Patchwork of tiles
A patchwork of tiles being sent out to a customer next week. They are 10 cm tile all from our stock of tiles – we are selling our stock 10 cm & 15 cm tiles at nearly half price – £7 for 10 cm and £8 for 15 cm. Just email or ring to see if we have something you would like. We also have a lot of 6″ tiles.

Featured in The Sunday Times paper
We have got a picture in The Sunday Times news paper for the third time this year.
This is a 2 week feature on contemporary potter to run in conjunction with the Great Pottery Show Down on television.
The tiles sizes and prices are slightly wrong – they are usually on handmade 5″ (127 mm) tiles, and are £16 each. Other sizes are available!

One of our best commissions
Another bit of publicity for one of the best jobs we’ve done – a Chinoiserie bathroom tile panel.
It would look equally great with a turquoise background and perhaps a few birds in it….

New shower
After years of struggling with an expensive shower that never worked properly, we have finally invested in a new one! Bliss.
Medieval Animal Tiles
A job sent out this week for the kitchen of a Medieval manor that’s being restored.
All the animals are based on animals from Medieval illuminations and Elizabethan stump work.
The tiles are 14 cm handmade. I am very happy with them and so is the customer!
Another sunny day in the workshop
We haven’t had enough days like this, this Summer….
Favourite kind of day
