The Industry produced hand woven linen for a form of embroidery that was based on sixteenth-century reticella and cutwork, now often known as 'Ruskin lace'.
Fleming and Twelves established a training centre for girls and women at a cottage, which they called St Martin's, the Catholic saint who was known for giving his coat to the poor. Here the women would learn how to spin, and from here they would go back to their own houses to continue their domstic crafts.
