To get from Minnesota to Montana you have to cross the Dakotas, either north or south depending on your route, and maybe both. The are various groups and individuals in Manitoba, Saskatchewan and the Dakotas who make lace. To get a good picture, someone may want to go back through the old IOLI membership directories for the past 10 years. I suggest this time period because I have noticed a reduction in the number of IOLI members over this time period. I know some of the ladies are still alive and making lace, but they are no longer members. I checked a few names on my return from Seminar wondering if they were still members.
There is also an interest is lace amongst the weavering groups. If you are looking for people, you may want to send email to the weaving groups around the state asking if there is anyone they know who is making lace. I know several weavers who have taken up the art.
