Hats and Horses!

​I entered my headpiece Murmurations into this year's RDS National Craft Awards and was thrilled to be included in the exhibition that ran during the Dublin Horse Show. 

It was inspired by the hypnotic swirling patterns of starlings in flight and star constellations.

It was an even bigger thrill and a huge shock that my piece was awarded the Traditional Lacemakers of Ireland Award!

​I'll be given two days of classes in Irish lacemaking, which I'm really looking forward to and will keep you posted on how I get on!

The fabulous trophy!
