Modern Milanese Lace Techniques and Projects. Flip through. I hope you enjoy this flip through of my new book to give you a lit...

We’ve travelled south to enjoy a few days in Dorset - what a fabulous area to explore! - and today we are at Poole Lace Day enjoying a lovely time as a supplier. Lovely to be here.

Dee Carver is here with her beautiful bobbins too plus we have a talk “Bobbin Lace and Textiles” to enjoy from Jan Tregidgo.

Visiting my bestie too as she lives not too far away makes for a perfect few days ❤️❤️

We are heading south on Thursday ready for Poole Lace Day on Saturday. It looks like it is going to be a fabulous day with Jan Tregidgo giving the talk and Dee Carver with her beautiful bobbins and LaceyMay's (haberdashery) joining us as suppliers.

We are looking forward to meeting lots of the Poole (and surrounding area) lacemakers 😃

We have seized the opportunity to take a couple of days beforehand to explore the area so will be heading off early on Thursday. Anyone attending who has anything on their wish list, please do drop me a line ([email protected]) to be sure that I include. We bring quite a spread but would hate to not include that one thread or book (or anything else!) that you had hoped to purchase.

Visit https://www.poolebobbinlace.com/lace-day.html for more information about the lace day.

We are in “Sunny Hunny” Hunstanton over in North Norfolk today - and yes, despite what the weather forecast said, the sun is shining! We are attending Lavender Lacemaker Lace Day and what a fabulous room full of lacemakers we have❤️.

A fascinating talk given by Carole Morris of Spangles - if you hear this ever you will certainly start looking at antique spangles very differently!

And we remember Lynn Hallifax who was the founder of the event and sadly passed away last year. Well done to Alison and the team who have continued to run it -always a lovely day 💜

We are ready roll (with time to spare for a change!) at Melton Mowbray Lace Group Lace Day! Just a short journey here today so not quite such an early start.

A short visit for us as we are off to Paris later today to support our son running the Paris Marathon tomorrow, raising much needed funds for Prostate Cancer UK 💙🏃🏼‍♂️.

Margaret Wall Painted Bobbins and Pippins Patchwork here too. Now where is the sun hiding!!

👏👏❤️❤️

A closer look at the cover.

I can't stop looking at it. See the previous post for my unpacking of the first advance copy.

Patience is a virtue. We still have a while to wait while stock is shipped to the U.K.
