The Story of Kata Golda

Kata Golda loves to sew and draw and explore, leaving trails of thread wherever she goes. She surrounds herself with color and texture, using sewing needles, old typewriters, and letterpress machines to create new things with wool felt, fabric, paper, and clay.

How It Began

In 1999, inspired by the color and texture of hand-dyed wool felt, I started making toys for my baby girl. As she grew and began to draw I made her first sketch book, decorated with a hand-stitched felt teddy bear and adorned with her name. It was to become the forerunner of what is today the Kata Golda collection.

I continue to be inspired by color and texture and by my daughter's drawings and sense of placement. Nestled snugly amongst the comings and goings of friends and family in a small, mossy seaside town, Kata Golda has grown into a flourishing business and creative space while allowing me to stay true to what I love to do.

Thank you for your support and interest in my work.
