Enjoyed #cycling past the old Lace mills in Erewash yesterday along @ErewashCanal to Bennerley Viaduct Here's Harrington Mill, Whiteley's Mill & Bridge Mill in Long Eaton. It highlighted the importance of #canals bringing coal to power #lace machines #nottinghamlace #legacyoflace

Mystery solved on origins of this Nottingham #lace design thanks to Donna sharing pic of a pod from a Sweet Gum tree. Anyone know if there's any of these #trees in Nottingham arboretum park ? It's where trainee lace designers got ideas #seeds #Nottinghamlace #fashionhistory

New year, new focus on #lace I came across this gorgeous leaf design during my #artists residency @erewashmuseum within their Nottingham #pattern book collection #nottingham

I love these playful animal repeats within the #1930's Levers #lace #pattern book which belonged to my Great Grandfather Thomas Stocks. He started his lace business at Jardines Mill, Draycott, Derbyshire England early 1900s #textiles #Nottingham
