[lace] lace] Coventry

[Bridget Marrow]

Well, I finally got to the "Myth or Mystery" exhibition.  I was all set to 
go on Saturday, but the trains were not running a full service at the 
weekend, and I jibbed at doing half the journey by bus. So, I missed the 
presentations and had the place almost to myself on Monday.

It took me some time to find the Gallery, and when I did half of it seemed 
to be a building site - which may be why there was not as much space 
available as the Lace Guild would have liked.

I am simply in awe of what my fellow lacemakers have achieved - not least 
the arachnids!
Hearty congratulations to Jill Harward (and welcome to Arachne!), winner of 
the John Bull trophy, and to the South Australian lacemakers who conjured up 
"Medusa's Ghost".  I couldn't possibly mention all the entries I admired.  
The technical standard was so high, and the theme had obviously appealed 
imaginations from the youngest to the oldest!  I wonder which they were?

Here's to 2007, and our Arachne entry.  I havn't signed up to the sub-group 
that is planning it, so I hope they will let us know how they are getting on 
from time to time.

Signing off now, as I am off to Prague tomorrow.  When I get back, I might 
confess to my longest running UFO (it beats any that have been mentioned 
yet!)

Happy lacemaking
Bridget, in Watford, England
