As I venture into West Yorkshire it seemed obvious to have a look into Leeds and Bradford.

These are two cities that I knew nothing about but my eyes have been opened looking into them both. Both are full of history, art and music.

I've been to Leeds a few times but I have only ever been to The Alhambra Theatre in Bradford once years ago, so this city is somewhere I'd like to go and see all the fabulous things that I've read about.

Did you know that Bradford is known as the wool capital of the world?

Congratulations to With Love in Barnard Castle on their one year anniversary. Laura was one of my first wholesale customers and you can find Barnard Castle, Teesdale and Co Durham mugs and coasters in her gorgeous shop.

Adding more Town and City designs at each market. I'm running out of space!

I'm in Red House Primary School in Norton until 2pm today.

We are in the middle of a power cut so if you are too you can try to cope with no WiFi by browsing all the lovely stalls and grab a cuppa.

Have a lovely weekend ❤️

Up next is Leeds.

Who knew that Cluedo was invented there? Not me!

It's the first place in West Yorkshire I've into designing. There are so many great places to choose from.

Find me at Norton Green this Saturday for my next market. This a great market held at Red House Junior School. There are loads of fabulous traders both in the yard and inside.

I will be bringing Norton mugs and coasters along as well and many other wordy items. I might have a couple of Norton bags left too.

I need a reminder to check the stock before Saturday!

See you there.

My niece is on her way to an amazing holiday and she saw my Newcastle mugs on sale in Newcastle airport. I knew they were there but it's so exciting to see them. I wish it was my name on the tags but the wholesaler got them in there so it has to be them. Onwards and upwards 🙌

Find me tomorrow with my pop up stall in Costa Coffee, Portrack Lane Stockton On Tees. It will be the first time out for the new Stockton design.

I've been today to check it out with and had to sample some cheesecake! More restraint needed tomorrow I think!

Butlins is celebrating its 90th birthday so I thought I'd share some throw back photos of my summer as a Redcoat back in 1994 at Wonderwest World in Ayr.

I had the best time and would do it again in a heartbeat (well most of it)! Ah, the good old days 🥰😍
