I use these as inspiration for my prints; I create lino cut blocks which I hand-print, and sometimes paint with water colour. These prints are then further developed into a range of themed kitchenware, prints and stationery.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Thetea towels are presented with a paper \u2018belly band\u2019 which has the cooking instructions for therecipe on the back.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-613380\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/5c614af0-5e14-4047-9194-5476b40676ab.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"362\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Kate Guy&#8217;s Soupe de Poisson tea towel<\/p>\n<p>Simple Soups series &#8211; Tomato Soup (top), Onion Soup and Soupe de Poisson&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-613384\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/or1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"384\" \/><\/p>\n<p>www.kateguy.co.uk\/simple-soups<\/p>\n<p>Regional Recipes series &#8211; Bakewell Tart, Cornish Pasty<br \/>\nIrish Stew, Lancashire Hot Pot&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-613382\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/orro.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"920\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Regional Recipe tea towels from Katey Guy<\/p>\n<p>Regional Recipes &#8211; Scotch Broth,Scouse<br \/>\nWelsh Cawl, Yorkshire Steak &amp; AlePie&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-613381\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/zz5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"877\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Regional Recipe tea towels from Kate Guy<\/p>\n<p>As well as tea towels, the range of homewares includes Tote Bags, Range Hob Covers, Oven Gloves and Pot Holders, Aprons, Greeting Cards and Wrapping Paper&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-613383\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/zz6.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"598\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/zz6.jpg 615w, https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/zz6-36x36.jpg 36w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Simple Soup homewares by Kate Guy<\/p>\n<p>Kate also holds workshops with small groups in her studios in Putney and Camden; printmaking,general art classes, student tutoring and one toone sessions \u2013 see the website for further details.<\/p>\n<p>See the full range at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kateguy.co.uk\">www.kateguy.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Instagram @kate_guy_<br \/>\nTwitter @kate_guy_<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-613377\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/zz7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"243\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Simple Soups &amp; Regional Recipes&#8230; Illustrated Homewares by Kate Guy www.kateguy.co.uk Stuck for some recipe inspiration?
