We are in “Sunny Hunny” Hunstanton over in North Norfolk today - and yes, despite what the weather forecast said, the sun is shining! We are attending Lavender Lacemaker Lace Day and what a fabulous room full of lacemakers we have❤️.

A fascinating talk given by Carole Morris of Spangles - if you hear this ever you will certainly start looking at antique spangles very differently!

And we remember Lynn Hallifax who was the founder of the event and sadly passed away last year. Well done to Alison and the team who have continued to run it -always a lovely day 💜

We are ready roll (with time to spare for a change!) at Melton Mowbray Lace Group Lace Day! Just a short journey here today so not quite such an early start.

A short visit for us as we are off to Paris later today to support our son running the Paris Marathon tomorrow, raising much needed funds for Prostate Cancer UK 💙🏃🏼‍♂️.

👏👏❤️❤️

A closer look at the cover.

I can't stop looking at it. See the previous post for my unpacking of the first advance copy.

Patience is a virtue. We still have a while to wait while stock is shipped to the U.K.

Wow, wow and wow again! The first look at Claire Bonito's soon to be published fabulous first book. As Claire mentions in her video, we are absolutely delighted to confirm that we will be stocking this at Roseground and we already have the thread in stock (forward planning there!) for the designs - all use the lovely Mez Cotton 50 thread.

Huge congratulations Claire - the book looks absolutely fantastic 👏👏👏👏

Watch this space for more information for when orders can be placed - my understanding it may be a couple of months or so before the books arrive from the printers.
