About the Founder:
Graduating from Central Saint Martins took Katy to New York and back to London in her former career as a graphic designer. She worked at the renowned agency Pentagram and smaller boutique firms, designing for clients including Channel 4, BBC and Vodaphone. Her work has also been published in the New York Times.
A life changing event grew her love for hand crafting with limited resources. Her passion lead her into the unique craft of what she fondly calls paper and stitch.
Her passion and purpose now is to pass on this mindful, sustainable craft, hoping it brings others the same quiet joy it has given her.
