She beat off stiff competition from Belle and Sebastian, Mogwai, King Creosote and Young Fathers to take the £1,000 prize.
Elsewhere, Paolo Nutini won the public vote for his 2014 album Caustic Love.
Stewart Henderson, chair of the Scottish Music Industry Association (SMIA), said: 'It’s been a flagship year for the SAY Award, our biggest yet, so I’m absolutely delighted for Kathryn.
'Bones You Have Thrown Me And Blood I’ve Spilled is a beautiful, very special album. I’m just incredibly proud of all the music our artists have released over the last 15 months – and for the SAY Award to recognise a talent like Kathryn, well, we must be doing something right. It’s shaping up well for the SAY’s fifth anniversary next year.'
Produced by the SMIA, and now in its fourth year, the SAY Award has grown to become the most prestigious music prize in Scotland.
Previous winners include Bill Wells & Aidan Moffat (2012), RM Hubbert (2013) and Young Fathers (2014) – who were also longlisted again this year for their album DEAD.
