a brief diversion into Downton Lace

 No, nothing to do with Downton abbey but a style of lace similar to Bucks point from the village of Downton near Salisbury. just a bit of fun before setting up the next piece of Bucks for the bobbin along.


Two more books have joined my original pattern book, one is a more detailed history of the lace and the other has patterns to work. This link will take you to a page on the fashioning the world web site.




My next piece of lace will be a small Bucks point medallion.
