Beginning in the next couple of days, will be the 59th IOLI Convention hosted by the Minnesota Lace Society. I'm aware that several of our members will be represented there - wishing you lots of fun and lots of lace. We will be looking forward to hearing all about it. Take some pictures!
If you are not going, yet a member of IOLI - this annual meeting is a turning point. On the Ballot is the vote to change the name of the organization from International Old Lacers, Inc. to either of these two choices - International Organization of Lace, Inc. (IOLI) or Lace Alliance (LA) ? If you have followed the members' forum on the IOLI website earlier this year, there was plenty of talk and discussion - including yours truly.
If you haven't voted yet - http://www.emailmeform.com/builder/form/D5UCaSn1imEuFqAcV87k0N4 here's the link to their site - you will need your membership number to post your ballot.
The Annual meeting and vote is slated for August 9th!
