This pattern, Anemone Garter, was purchased from DJ Hornsby of Canterbury’s website. When my God-daughter told she was getting married and I decided to make her a garter, I had only been making Tourchon lace for 3 years. 200 hours later!!
It was and amazing journey, made easier with help from my teacher Louise Woodward, and the humour of my class friends, especially during numerous occasions of working backwards. Before completing this piece I had not made anything larger than a 5″ square mat and not worked with a gimp thread but the challenge and the end product I think (being modest) was really worth it.
