Pattern
Own design.
Pattern submitted to Lace Guild and published in Lace 129, January 2008.
Materials
170/2 Egyptian cotton, white.

Notes
Previous version made in 2001/2002. Have straightened up pricking on computer and will do different fillings.
Took rather a long break most of the way through the first filling section (Snowflake) and got started again May 2015. Rather a challenge to pick up part way, but it worked eventually!
