There was certainly lots of it in the Allhallows Museum when I was there a couple of years ago Liz. There was also a lady demonstating lace making too in the lace section of the Museum - the lace part of the museum was a separate and quite distinct section of the Museum and although it is only a small local museum it has a very nice feel to it. I remember it well as I made a point of going specifically to Honiton to see the Museum as my Grt Grandfather was a Lace Manufacturer who was born in the area. I got chipped by the man at the counter for buying Midlands bobbins whilst in Honiton. :-)) - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
