Meet Eddie Eynon from Eynonymous Designs, a designer-maker creating rich, sumptuous patterned textiles and prints inspired by the flora and fauna of mid Wales.

We review ‘Screenprinting on Textiles: The Complete Guide’ by Sue Westergaard – a comprehensive, practical and inspiring craft book for aspiring and experienced printmakers.

Sue Trevor has spent the last 36 years making a living as a textile artist, and is particularly loved for her spectacular stitched sculptures of ordinary domestic objects like the teapot, telephone and Kenwood Chef. Find out more in our interview.

Meet Coralie Green, a self-taught quilt maker who creates bright, modern quilts, based around colour play. She works from an old cotton mill in the heart of Manchester, where she can spend weeks pondering over the design, simplifying it over and over again until the perfect contemporary quilt emerges.

Meet Jane V Shorten, a contemporary textile artist who creates beautiful stitched flights of fancy, where vintage line drawings sit in slightly surreal, offbeat landscapes, surrounded by colourful embroidered and appliquéd flora and fauna.
