Elizabeth Correa -- I look forward to meeting you at the IOLI convention.
We will be there a couple of days beforehand. What class will you be in?
I am in the morning Tatting class - making the necklace shown on the IOLI
convention list of classes. ( class 514 I think).
It is always fun to
Thank you, Louise for posting about the Bacton Altar Cloth: Very
interesting! The piece has been much mended and well taken care of,
presumably because it is such a special piece. In Janet Arnold's book from
1988, Queen Elizabeth's Wardrobe Unlock'd, there are a couple illustrations
in the Stowe
I have a pair of the black ones. They are, of course, not crochet, but a
machine torchon type pattern.
They are very comfortable, and very inexpensive.
The lace pattern shows up better on the white (and pink) but black goes better
with my wardrobe.
I've worn them to lace demonstrations and to
Four people from my lace group are going to OIDFA this year. The rest of us
are envious. We hear all about their plans and turn a bit green. I did get
to go to one in the past and enjoyed it very much.
The OIDFA in 2020 in Estonia intrigues me. That's far enough away, if I

It was quite a relief to discover that I am not the only one not going to
Slovenia!! Oh, how I wish I could be there but I am also pinning my hopes
on Brugge! For those of you who have not met Jeri - make an effort it will

>From my perspective, a one-time invitation today of how to find me - is
enough for people I'd love to meet.
At the IOLI conventions in the U.S., lodging, meals, lectures, sales rooms
and activities are all in one hotel, making a lunch meeting fairly easy to

Adele, thank you so much for posting! I was having trouble imagining the
collar from your description so it was kind of your friend to send photos to
share. Love the bird, thistle & shamrocks (??). Does your friend ever wear
her collar? It is stunning & would look very chic indeed on a
Dear Jeri,
me too doesn’t know any Slovenian lacemaker personally but why could we fix a
time to meet each other on a certain point at the OIDFA-place and found a
corner we could chat to each other.
Or why not ask the ladies organizing the congress for a place.

Dear Jeri,
How I wish I could be in Slovenia attending the congress and meeting you and
other Arachne members. I have made some Idrija lace and want to do more and
would love to have learned more about it and the lacemakers who make it. But I
am a few years ahead of you in age and not an
Your message, Jeri, makes me feel a bit envious of all those of you who
will be in Ljubljana! I would love to attend the Congress, as I am
especially fond of Idrija Lace. But unfortunately the expenses for such a
trip are too high. I will have to wait for... Bruges perhaps? I will start
saving
It is too quiet again. So, let me ask
Will you be attending the OIDFA Congress in Slovenia? This is an
*invitation* to meet me !
There is no one I know in Slovenia whom we could ask to coordinate a group
meeting. However, I'd love to meet you individually. Look for a 5' 2"
woman
Thanks for sharing this (and posting the link so I can get to it easily).
Definitely an interesting piece, though the pivoted bars are unusual.
May I appeal to anyone sharing photos on Arachne to post a link to them. It
makes life so much easier. Mm..I may need to take this last request
