Katie Almond is a designer maker specializing in ceramics. Since graduating from De Montfort University, Leicester Katie has been reguarly attending craft fairs, supplying to galleries and shops across the UK, as well as setting up workshops.

Katie produces decorative jugs, cups, cake stands and brooches using hand-painted and hand-building techniques. Each ceramic is inspired and carefully designed with gardening flowers, seaside and afternoon tea themes, which are created a lot through collage. I love the quirkiness of the shapes of the ceramics. You can find Kate on twitter @kalmondceramics. Enjoy, Hannah.
