Just to let you know that we've updated the Lace Guild website. There are extracts from the October issue of 'Lace' magazine which include an article about Mrs Treadwin's new headstone and a pattern for a Torchon mat. Mrs Treadwin contributed a great deal to the nineteenth century Honiton lace industry and the Devon Lace Teachers, dismayed by the dilapidated state of the headstone on her grave, raised money so that it could be replaced. You can read about Mrs Treadwin at <http://www.exetermemories.co.uk/em/_people/treadwin.php>
There is also a new list of second-hand books available from the Lace Guild - this is under Books & DVDs on the Lace Suppliers page.
