Archivist and curator Margaret Lewis said a great many had praised all of the entries, with some saying it was too difficult to chose a favourite.

A few spaces are available in the Honiton lace making classes.

For young people, aged from eight to 18, the classes are held on Saturdays during school term time at the museum, from 8.30am to 10.30am.
