Butterfly Honiton lace sprig
In 2012 The Devon Lace Teachers published this butterfly Honiton lace sprig in 'Honiton Lace a collection of rediscovered fillings'. Christine Hawken was a talented maker, teacher and researcher. This and another book of her patterns were sold in her memory with all proceeds given to HospiceCare. When The Devon Lace Teachers dissolved in 2023 they gave Christine's collection to RAMM. This sprig includes the following fillings: snatch bars with half stitch plaits variation, half stitch braids and wide leadworks, six pin and a pin, and four pin blocks variation 2.
