We have a member of the UK Lace Guild committee in our Monday lacemaking
group, and she told us some interesting information about the lacemaking in
the recent 'Larkrise to Candleford'.
They consulted the Lace Guild about the lacemaking, and asked if someone
could teach the actress how to make lace. Something along the lines of
giving her a 5 minute lesson!
The hands we saw were someone from the Lace Guild - think she said it was
possibly Gill Dye (not certain about that with my memory not being what it
was).
The pillows were supplied by the Lace Guild.
The Lace Guild pointed out that the "finest point ground lace" was actually
Maltese and asked them to change it, but they were told it couldn't be
changed.
