Now that you are talking about the Lace Guild.... I've read the information about the lacemaker's census. At the beginning I thought the idea was very good. But after talking about it with other Spanish lacers, some questions arouse, which I hope the Lace Guild members or any other Arachneans may answer. 1. First of all, we would like to know if you think with this census all lacers in the world will be really represented. In the case of Spain, and I think it is the same in many other areas or countries, there are many lacers, but not so many are connected to the Internet or know how to use a computer. That means they are not going to know about this census. And in case they have a computer and know how to use it, they don't understand English (I would say that perhaps 75% of women older than 45 in Spain don't speak English. At that time French was the 1st foreign language studied at school). 2. If the lacers that take part in the census can send a label of any type of lace, then the census only serves to get a number of lacers, not the style of the different areas or countries. 3. What will be the exact use of these thousands of lace labels? Are they going to be exhibited in the Guild, in a museum, are they going to be published somewhere? I am looking forward to your answers.
