March 12, 2012. I had the privilege today to be shown round the Museum by Margaret. It is a wonderful place, dedicated to keeping this beautiful craft alive. The pieces of lace are breathtaking, and as a self-taught Honiton lacemaker, I am in awe that such beautiful things were made by such gifted people.

Margaret was very knowledgeable of the various items, and able to give me a lot of background and assistance. If you love Honiton lace, then do try to make the journey. You won’t be disappointed, but you will be inspired.
Thank you to the Trustees and Volunteers for all their work.

And Thank You, Margaret, for a wonderful morning.

An excellent museum with enthusiatic staff. Our main interest was the Honiton Lace making exhibition and we weren’t disappoint it made the 500 mile round trip worth it. We even followed our Great Grandmother’s skill and tried making Honiton Lace.
Thank you for your time and for keeing the tradition going.
Regards
