Happy Boxing Day to all of you. This year for Christmas presents, I made up Janice`s poppy pattern. After making it into a poppy, I then mounted it onto a small oblong of marble. Being a dark colour it showed the poppies off to perfection. Everyone who receive one has been very pleased with it.

Hi Janice I think your book title translates on Of (about) the fish crisis and (to do with) the golden age of lace - quite a few laces were developed to give some income to fisherfolk at a time when the primary resource of fishing wasn't viable. Rosaline lace from the Netherlands comes to mind.
