Yes I was on that course but we didn't cover the hexagonal grounds as time didn't allow, but I already knew how to work those having been taught the Zele way by Agnes Stevens some thirty or more years earlier. My main reason for enrolling on the course was my burning curiosity to learn how they managed to incorporate the horse hair supporting the tiny picots round the edge of their work.
Pleased to learn you are safe and well Leonard as am I, but frustrated at having to rely on others for my shopping for almost 11 weeks and being 'confined to barracks' also! I've waited two weeks for a delivery of face masks, rubber gloves, antibacterial hand wipes/gel and ventured out for the first time this week to shop for myself! It was absolute bliss to be able to choose for myself! Take care and stay safe.
