Not notable. An obituary in The Guardian doesn't push us past WP:BASIC "significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources". She worked for a company who made kids' clothes.

Keep Coverage in the journal Textile is substantial and provides sufficient information to sustain a bigraphical article.

Keep She doesn't just work for a company that made kids' clothes, she had a durable impact on children's fashion, and South East England arts and crafts. I'm sorry if the first version didn't fully convey this, and will add further secondary sources.

Keep or at very least, merge to
Clothkits Clothkits is definitely notable and had a huge impact on British fashion in the 1970s-80s. It sounds like Janet Kennedy and Clothkits were so intermeshed and merged that it may make sense for their articles to be in the same article, unless she also had a significant career outside the company. It wasn't just kid's clothing by the way - loads of adult clothing too, I had a teacher in primary school who ALWAYS wore Clothkits stuff! I do look forward to seeing how the article grows and expands, but I don't think it should be deleted.

Keep. GNG is met by multiple substantial reliable independent sources. The tagline on the Guardian obituary makes the notability clear: "Print designer for Clothkits whose sew-it-yourself patterns defined the look of 1970s childrenswear".
