You'll find me under the clock in Herne Bay again on Sunday 2 August 2015 alongside some very lovely other makers...some of whom belong to Made in Herne Bay...with sunshine forecast it promises to be a great event with fabulous makers including Kate Samuels, Heather Mathieson, Nicework Vintage, The Black Rabbit and many more...plus cartoons, seafood and music...see you there...

We are delighted to have a mention in The Sunday Times Homes section where Katrina Burroughs shows you how to shop smart this summer...she suggests that 'sales purchases should feel like a bit of a conquest'...hopefully you will agree that they do, take advantage of the great offers before the end of Thursday 2nd July 2015...

Thank you to Alison at Home for including Jenny Duff in the Best of British selection in Spring Living in The Daily Telegraph.  Described as 'the perfect garnish for your dining table' the piece includes a selection of Gillian Blease Herb design table mats.

New designs are in the offing - here are the colour swatches - keep an eye out to see them put into use...

I've made a decision this year to go out and visit my stockists and have started with a journey to Shannon in Bath.  What a beautiful city and what a treasure Shannon at 68 Walcot Street is within it.    I urge you to visit, but spend longer than the morning I had, as there is plenty to see and do, from visiting the Roman Baths, sipping coffee, afternoon tea or the theatre, plus the veritable Aladdin's cave of Scandinavian design, furniture, ceramics, fabric and more that is Shannon... Shannon, 68 Walcot Street, Bath BA1 5BD
