We are constantly blown away by the success stories coming through from The Art & Business of Surface Pattern Design alumni. Not only did we have a winner we also had two more of our talented alumni in the final. Three, yes three of the finalist are all from our ABSPD community! We would also like to congratulate Martha Copinger Binns (who was also a finalist last year!) & Vickie Price from Ameo Designs for making the top five! This is the second year running one of our graduates has won, following Wendy Kendall‘s success in 2013.

Here is Katy’s winning design.
