AN EXHIBITION about lacemaking has opened in east Durham.

Cobwebs and Frost is a display of lace work at Seaton Holme, in Easington, put together by Marguerite Elliott.

She worked as a design consultant to a Scottish tweed manufacturer after attending the Royal College of Art in London.

Her exhibition features crochet, knitted lace, tatting and embroidered lace.

It includes a needle and cotton used to make Queen Victoria's wedding dress.

The exhibition, organised by Groundwork East Durham, runs until November 5.
