From the Lace Guild: We are deeply saddened to hear that Bridget Cook, well known lacemaker, designer, teacher and internationally renowned author since the 1970s, has died. In partnership with Geraldine Stott, Bridget was instrumental through her research and publication work in making our craft widely accessible. Bridget had been unwell for some time and moved to a nursing home to be cared for. Sadly her stay in new surroundings was brief. It was her wish that there be no Funeral or Memorial Service.
