Alison Tolson

Due to an increasing volume of business over the last few months, I have decided to devote more time to my painting and I am expanding the range of products I supply.

I attended the National Christmas Lacemaker's Fair on Saturday 3 December 2011 at Cranmore Park, Birmingham. It was good to see so many people there and to meet up with so many friends. I will be attending the Harrogate Lace Event on Saturday 31 March 2012 at Pavilions of Harrogate.

My web site will give you an idea of the type of work I do but if you would like something a little different please call or email. I paint a wide range of designs including pets, fruit, flowers, seasonal, spirals, stylised designs and teddies. My bobbins are painted with either acrylic, watercolour or gouache paints and sealed with several coats of varnish.

Over the last few years, I have painted a varied range of individual and lace day commemoratives. If you would like to order commemoratives, please contact me by email or telephone to discuss your individual requirements.

I am happy to supply bobbins on a sale or return basis to lace groups - please contact me for further details.

Recently I have started selling some of the bobbins, books and threads I have available for immediate purchase in my my Etsy shop. The number of items available for sale in my Etsy shop will increase over the next few weeks.

I have been making lace for many years and now enjoy designing lace in a variety of styles - see the Lace tab above.
I am an active member of The Lace Guild and served a three year term on the Executive Committee as well as teaching workshops at The Lace Guild Convention.

I am currently a member of Edinburgh Lace Club.
