Wow if you're debating should I, shouldn't I go to New Designers then say yes. The work is really wonderful and inspiring and all of the students I spoke to were so friendly and informative about their work and of course justifiably proud.
Bucks New University has won the award for best stand with a fabulous display of students work that blends together so well. Do make sure you check out the textiles there by Lois Norman, they're just to die for, so much lovelier in the flesh than a photo can do justice to.

I was also drawn to the work of Jade Marczynski who won a Selvedge award for excellence in textiles. She is great to chat to and had been inspired in her work by talking to people who had war time memories. This doesn't mean her work was dark or solemn but instead consisted of wonderful embroidered imagery and quotes in beautiful fresh colours which had a fashionably vintage feel to them. She even let me take her photo.
