On October 1 each year, as many members/groups as possible are asked to
demonstrate lace-making somewhere. My former guild usually went to a
fiber-oriented store, such as a knitting shop, to demonstrate. >
Just checked, October 1 is a Sunday this year. I like the idea of
demonstrating at a shopping mall, maybe something my guild could pursue as
another venue. We never know what the weather will bring in October so an
indoor site might be good to have. I think most of our fibre stores are
too small to accomodate more than one lacemaker at a time.
