Awarded the Designers' Guild Plaque for Outstanding Work by the BTS during the annual awards ceremony at Salts Mill.

During the Bradford Textile Society annual awards ceremony I was awarded the British Textile Designers' Guild plaque. This is a very prestigious award for outstanding work in the area of textile design and is typically presented to universities. Past winners include Leeds College of Art, Nottingham Trent University and Loughborough University to name a few. To be awarded such a prestigious award as an individual for my textiles work is a huge compliment. It was a pleasure to attend the awards ceremony, providing a great opportunity to meet all the winners/judges, and to receive my five awards. The Bradford Textile Society competition is nation wide and is thought to be one of the oldest of its kind, around for nearly 90 years. I would like to thank everyone at the Society and the Judges for all the recognition they have shown me and my work. To view the winning work please click here - Design Competition Winners

April 2013: Awarded two first prizes with a further two commendations by the Bradford Textile Society.

I am delighted that my textiles work has been awarded two first prizes with a further two commendations by the Bradford Textile Society (Supported by Clothworkers Foundation). The first award was received for material construction created by non-conventioanl means. The second award was for innovative combination of textile processes for the interiors market. This recognition is special to me as I am originally from Yorkshire so its great to have my work commended by such an institution. The award winning work will be exhibited at Salts Mill from 24th to 28th April 2013. Salts Mill was built in 1853 and was at that time the largest industrial Building in the world. The Mill is now an art gallery housing a major collection of the work of Bradford-born artist David Hockney.
