Bowes
Museum have been so lovely and generous, letting me roam around
freely in their 'Glass Cube', where one of UK's largest collection of
lace is stored. The 'Blackbourne Collection' has lace dating back to
17th Century... some are nearly 400 years old! It is amazing how
these beautiful pieces have been cared for and restored. To me, the
craft of lace is such fine art and unfortunately it is fast
disappearing. Have you ever thought of how much patience, skill and
hardship that goes into every inch of the lace? Hopefully i can
revive and sustain this beautiful hand craft in my own way. Stay
tuned for my project...this is just a teaser hehe
