Her studio in Carrigslaney is situated near the River Slaney.Mary makes smaller pieces of lace to make the lace commercially viable and affordable to all. Every piece of her work is signed, dated and numbered. She also designs all of her own patterns. Mary graduates the picot edge(looped edge) to her work and has copyright on this.
