Hello Everyone Wolds Lacemakers are due to hold their annual Lace Day on the 22nd September 2012 at Cottingham Road Baptist Church Chanterlands Avenue Hull HU5 4AY England. The opening times are 10.a.m. to 4.p.m. and the entrance fee is £3.50. Our speaker will be Carol McFadzean on 'Mrs Treadwin - Lacemaker Extraordinaire'. She was an important 19th century figure in the history of Devon Lace. Carol will also have on display the lace of Christine Hawken as well as the latest 'Honiton Fillings' Book for sale that the Devon Lace Teachers finished at the request of Christine. Honiton lovers will know of Christine's 121 Honiton Lace Fillings. We will have suppliers in attendance. There will also be a raffle and a door prize so everyone is advised to keep their Lace Day Ticket. There is a small car park at the Hall and there is parking Chanterlands Avenue and its side streets which are unrestricted on time. There is also access for disabled. But pleased bring a packed lunch as there are no sandwich shops nearby. Cakes will be provided with the afternoon tea.
We are also hopeful that the High Sheriff of Yorkshire will appear in the morning in her full regalia, including the lace jabot and cuffs which were made by a small team of lacemakers who are also members of Wolds Lacemakers. She will tell us a bit about her role as High Sheriff. So please, if you are in the area, do come and see us. We expect this to be a full and interesting day, especially as you can bring your lace pillow etc. with you.
