Be descriptive as to its appearance...maybe were we can see it done up online, who is the designer..>> There is a book called Fine Buckinghamshire Point Lace Patterns belonging to the Misses Pope and Misses Sivewright, Introduction by Christine Springett, that contains prickings that the workers of Bucks Point will find quite challenging. The fan pictured on the front of the book is very pretty, birds flanking a flower pot, with other pots on either side. Personally, I much prefer the appearance of this fan to the appearance of the notorious mat. You can see the photo of the fan on the cover of the book on _www.vansciverbobbinlace.com_ (http://www.vansciverbobbinlace.com) in books, under category 5, Bucks Point, etc. Devon
