Craft Workshops and adventures with paper

Lovely to meet you!

I’m Kate and I absolutely love to make art and patterns from my home in rural Gloucestershire. I have been teaching book-crafting workshops since 2022 and have taught over a hundred attendees how to make their own beautiful books. My workshops are portable and I have travelled to various locations to teach. Most recently, I have been teaching a series of full-day workshops at Highgrove Gardens, Tetbury with more dates to be announced.

My goal is to pass on my love of mindful making and give my attendees a new, relaxing and satisfying hobby.
