Profile
I make Carrickmacross Lace, a traditional craft which began in Ireland in 1816. Unlike the intricate patterns of years gone by, I make simpler designs, all of which are my own, then mount the lace on sensitively chosen handmade paper, thus presenting the lace framed. Every piece of my work is signed, dated and numbered.
