In the 1980s one or more of the UK lace suppliers sold a blue sticker to fit inside a car window, with the words "Lacemakers do it on a pillow" and a lacey design behind the words. It was about 12 x 2 inches.
Mum had one on the back window of her 1980 Mini Clubman Estate, which I inherited whan she died a couple of years ago. I have recently sent the car to a specialist restorer to have it put back 'as new' and I have realised how dog-eared the sticker has become. I have been told that I can probably get a new copy transfer made, but this sounds like an expensive option on top of an already expensive exercise and we would have to make-up the missing lace at the corners. But as far as I can remember back she had this sticker in the car and as I am also a lacemaker it seems appropriate for it to still be there. Can anyone remember who sold these, or even better (miracles do happen occasionally) if anyone still sells them. Even a photo of one with the corners intact would help. And if I do have to end up having it made, is there interest from any other spiders for one of their own; usually with this sort of thing it's the first one that is expensive, duplicates are a sensible price.
