I’m back from my travels, and working through the millions of pics I took in LA, North Adams and NYC, but I’ve started with editing the pics from a real highlight, which was the Skinny laMinx / Heath Finds pop-up at Heath Ceramics on 20 June. The Heath Ceramics LA showroom is a very impressive, high ceilinged …

Colour Book: Mimosa Sunrise
There’s something about this photo that I took this pic on a terrace overlooking the street at Hotel Diggi Palace early one morning, that makes me hear angels singing heavenly music. Can you hear them? Aaaahh! It’s also the photo that I used as a starting point for the Mimosa Sunrise colour board in our Colour Book …

Over the weeks leading up to the launch of the Diggi Dot fabric collection, you’ll have spotted our little series of teaser videos on Instagram, and the longer video about the collection, too. They …

Colour Book: Liquorice Mint
That’s a photo of my sitting room, you know! I took while preparing the Liquorice Mint colour board in our Colour Book, and liked it so much that I left it exactly the same after the shoot (give or take a picturesquely placed cat or two). I’m probably not allowed to have favourites, but you can …

Colour Book 2015/16: Fruit Salad
One of my biggest jobs every year is styling and photographing our catalogues. This year, I really had a good time working on the Colour Book, where I created five distinct looks that showcase the Diggi Dot collection, and also shows how it integrates with the existing Skinny laMinx prints. It’s a LOT of work, …
