Here is your chance to visit the many pavilions
that feature Lace in some form, either in costumes, demonstrations or displays.
It runs for two weeks, August 4-17, with kick off the Forks.
We’ve been invited to demonstrate bobbin lacemaking
at the Belgian Pavilion and perhaps generate some interest in fall classes! It will run during Week 2, August 11 – 17, Sunday
to Saturday. View the photo gallery on
the blog to see some photos. More to be added!
Biographies: If you haven’t taken the opportunity to write
your biography, please add it to the ever growing list! Share your ‘lace’ experience. Sample ideas: what sparked your interest,
when you started, favourite kinds, travel to various lacemaking sites or
museums, significant classes and/or lesson books that helped you learn. Please include a photo or two.
Biographies are
kept in plastic sleeves in a binder and are generally one page to two pages,
including photos. Received from Bev,
Donna, Ewa, Jocelyn, Mary, Michelle, Rose Anne, Shirley, Yvonne...
