    Beginning Bibilla (Closes 10/3/24) — A Twisted Picot

    Hi folks--

    I'm thinking I'd like to try one of these beginner kits. They have a video series to accompany it.

    If anyone else is interested, maybe we can combine shipping from Ireland and then distribute them at meetings or Sunday lace or whatever? Or I can mail them out and you can arrange to pay me US shipping. 

    If anyone is interested, let me know and I will contact them about a combined shipping order. 

    Let's say the deadline is Sept 30 2024 to let me know.

    Lace museum opens in Raleigh: Salisbury resident donates items for exhibit

    SALISBURY — Lacemaking is an artform that has been around for a long time, but there are not many museums in the United States that can boast being called a lace museum and exhibiting this delicate artwork.

    I have signed up for the Finger Lakes retreat.  I will be driving from NH, coming down Rt 495 & across I-90.  Is there anyone attending who might be interested in carpooling? I'd be happy to detour a bit to pick someone up.

    Hi, all.  

    I spoke with Holly Van Sciver at the IOLI Convention last week.  She told me there are still 10 spaces available.  So common and join us, New England Lacers!

    It was nice to see everyone yesterday. I hope to finish my tatted exchange bracelet/earrings for the Fringe Tatting group (fringetatters@gmail.com) by the next meeting!

    I will be placing my order to Klöppelshop | Klöppelshop im Kaufhaus Köck (kloeppelshop.de) on July 15 if anyone wants to order and split shipping. :-)

    ACTUALLY I no longer need to order at this time!

    happy lacing!

    :-) joan

    Why can't we get Ipswich interested in some lace fences....? Or a bench like that Headford project had. 

    I love these. You can also vote for this lace fence over there among the other art.

    Birds of Peace Gates

    Edit to add: this is where you can see all the projects and vote, if inclined. https://www.codaworx.com/codaawards/2024-top-100/
