About

My name is Kate, I am a designer/maker based in Nottingham, UK. I make a range of products including cards, prints and bags from my illustrations as well as handmade felt brooches. Whilst working on my own range, I also work as a freelance designer on various illustration/handcrafted projects. I have always made things, as far back as I can remember I have been drawing, painting, sewing, knitting and a whole lot of other stuff besides. I grew up in a town called Otley in West Yorkshire where I did a lot of walking in woods, paddling in rivers, and birdwatching. This is where my love of wildlife began and since then it seems to have been a prevailing influence on my work.

I graduated from Nottingham Trent University in 2004 with a degree in textile design, specialising in printed textiles.
