The idea for this piece came to me whilst I was at the ballet. It was in the interval and I was sat with my sketchbook doodling doilies and I thought it would make such a lovely idea to put a circular doily pattern into the wing of a butterfly (as you do!). I did a lot of research on lace later on until I had the most complicated, intricate design I had (at that point) attempted to turn into a papercut. This was a big job, about 40 hours of fiddly, hold-your-breath type cutting and it remains my firm favourite. I have the original hanging in my house.
