Honiton lace sampler
In 2014 The Devon Lace Teachers published this Honiton lace sampler in '121 Hontion Lace Fillings'. 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.
