I managed to get to Ally Pally last Thursday by train and coach.
Had a lovely day, only snag so many vendors, not enough time to take
stock what they had. It was nice to see the Polish Lacemaker at
the Lace Circle Stand, plus there was Polish lace to see as well.
Even bought a couple of Polish
Tamara,
Just went into your new website. YOur lac is gorgeous. Who cares too much about
the fine points of technique when one can be as creative as that! Leave the
