I made a thing! I'm lucky to have Golden Thread Pottery as a studio neighbour. I printed some business stationery for her a while back and ever since then we've been talking about booking a workshop. So when she asked me to reprint her business cards and offered a pottery workshop in exchange I jumped at the chance. It was a three generation family affair and so much fun. Thank you Carla. And if there are other local makers interested in a workshop/printing exchange, or even a straight workshop swap, I'm definitely in!

A fabulous family double bill workshop, morning and afternoon sessions. What a great variety of prints, inspired by everything from poetry and meditations to supermarkets, golf and a very special cat. 🐈 One of the joys of a letterpress workshop is the complete freedom to choose what to print. It means that everyone brings a bit of themselves to their work. I never know what to expect and it's always a pleasure and often an inspiration to see what comes out.

Practical Magic 2 came out in cinemas this week, nearly thirty years after the first movie found its way into the hearts of girls and women everywhere. I'll be honest I missed it at the time and this brilliant quote from it came to me via a workshop. I'm so glad it did. Surely every girl should have this card pinned on their wall?

I originally printed this for a mum whose daughter had disappeared off to uni without a backwards glance, or a phone call for that matter. Next week I'll be dropping off my youngest at uni, and will definitely pin one of these on her noticeboard before I go. I've added a few to my shop too, in case anyone else feels like me, that a little reminder wouldn't go amiss.

The first thing that came to mind for a card to congratulate my nephew for his GCSE results. But would a 16-year-old even know the expression? Or am I showing my age again (see also my Get off with you card). Still couldn't pass up the opportunity to try out my gorgeous new wood type from so I've printed a few of these and liked them so much I added them to my shop for other oldies like me.

Did you know that you can book a letterpress workshop with me through Airbnb Experiences? Last week I was lucky enough to have a workshop photographed by Alessio Paratore for Airbnb. .emma, her daughter and friends kindly agreed to be photographed as they printed. Alessio was extremely patient and hung around for hours to get the perfect shots of the action and everyone's print. He even took some photos of me that I can just about tolerate. (I am extremely camera avoidant.)Thanks Alessio, and thanks to Emma and her gang too. It was great having you all in the studio. Hope you are as pleased with the results as I am. 😊

Serendipity. This song has been running through my head and I've been thinking about making a print inspired by it. With 10 minutes before I had to leave the studio to visit my friend Amy Sharrocks and ink that needed to be used or cleaned away, I thought I'd try something. This was the happy accident that resulted. Then I remembered that Amy turned floating into a work of art a few years back with her work Drift and it felt like fate. It might not be quite what I planned but I love the serendipity of it.

A three card commission I printed recently. Wise words of experience and advice to live by. Though I can't endorse a cavalier approach to sunscreen on a day like this. ,

Birthday print for a recently returned gap year traveller, plus extras for her travelling companions. Apparently this was one of the theme tunes of their adventures. What would yours be?

Larry very much considers himself an artist's muse. He already has two beautiful portraits, thanks to and (see following pics). Now he's moving into his abstract phase and loves to hang out in the studio of , hoping to inspire her (at least that's what he thinks). Linda's studio is open for every day until Sunday. Come and see her beautiful paintings, Larry will be waiting to greet you. (And afterwards pop in and see me, my letterpress workshop will be open to visitors too.)
