Rio closing ceremonies and lace

August 25, 2016 5:45 PM | Sharon Sacco (Administrator)

I saw a comment on the White Thread blog from Vetty Creations on lace in the closing ceremonies of the Rio Olympics.  Having watched some of the Olympics, I wish I had watched the closing ceremonies, if only to see the lace connection.  Here is a link to the item on the blog: http://vettycreations.com.au/white-threads/2016/08/23/lacemaking-in-the-rio-olympics-closing-ceremony/

Enjoy!

    I found 2 great pictures of the lace and lace maker.
    About half way through this post is a overall picture-

    This is the individual lace maker shown at 1:19 am or almost halfway through
