Hi Steph - Well, your stipulation of "fairly modest" probably rules out the wonderful Honiton Stork which was designed by Barry Biggins and is in his "A Wider View" book of designs. This was worked by Caroline Biggins at one time and printed onto a card which also had the pricking on the back... sounds like a Lace Guild production, now that I think about it. I can't put my hands on my card at the moment. I have always thought this would make an excellent design to frame with the baby's birth information printed on the mat.
