Brief report post Potfest Haughley. No haul to show! Boo. Lightshades have gone down a storm with several sold and three commissions already - thank you! But mostly thank you to the potters, old friends and new, who’ve just been such a joy to be with, when I was mourning the loss of my Glass&Ceramics Degree Show 2026 crew. Much love to Belinda Glennon Ceramics and Danny O'Connor my immediate neighbours (remember the hot ginger thing) Jack Durling and Andrew Pentland Ceramics and Cabby (sorry I missed you at pack up) and all the beauts in a hot dusty field in Suffolk. And of course all the Potfest crew for making it happen.
Going to sleep until Tuesday xx

Yeah! It’s Potfest Haughley Park Weddings&Events in Suffolk, and I’m giddy as a fish. Snaps of the set up and my competition piece, then the lovely Andrew Pentland Ceramics stand, my filthy feet (so dry and dusty) and my little dog, enjoying his hols ‘darn sarf’. Xx
