Regular visitors to the website will remember an article published back in June in which we interviewed feltmaker Emma Jackson of Silversoles. In the interview Emma was telling us how she had been nominated for an award in the Textiles and Needlecrafts category of the 2009 craft&design Selected Awards for her collection of scarves, bags, wraps, corsages and wall pieces.

We are thrilled to be able to report that Emma has scooped the very first Gold Award in her category, winning her a fabulous £2,500 as well as a great range of promotional benefits from Craft and Design magazine.

Emma told HotHive Textiles, “I was delighted to receive the craft&design textiles award and very flattered that so many people voted for me and my work.”

Everyone here at HotHive Textiles would like to congratulate Emma on winning her award! You can find out more about Emma at www.silversoles.co.uk and more about the award at www.craftanddesign.net
