craft&design… a Showcase for British Crafts

Welcome to craft&design, a hub of creative resources and inspiration.

As we approach our 30th year in publishing, our small, dedicated team continues to promote and support the very best in British craft and design, both here online and through the pages of our bi-monthly magazine.

Liberty Quilt by Louise Gardiner

The May/June issue of craft&design magazine is available now featuring a fabulous selection of work by some of the UK's top designer makers. And with our national Craft and Design Month being celebrated throughout the whole of the month of May, there are lots of amazing events to read about too.

What better way to start the celebrations for Craft and Design Month than to announce our craft&design Selected Award Winners for this year! Top accolade goes to textile artist Louise Gardiner who takes our Maker of the Year title - with more than 1,000 other designer makers to compete with, that's certainly something to celebrate! Congratulations to Louise and all our 2012 Award Winners, they each put a huge amount into their presentations for our Specialist Judges - and a big thank you to each of our Judges too, for their expertise in tackling a very difficult task with such outstanding professionalism.
