Fantail Honiton lace sprig
Christine Hawken was a talented maker, teacher and researcher. Two books of her patterns and fillings 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 fantail’s body is worked in whole stitch with half stitch areas for the breast and underbelly. The wing is worked in ribbed whole stitch.
