They were a group of > dancers. First they came out and the women were dressed in the hooped > skirted gowns and the men were dressed in their finest. They danced the > minuet, and a few others. We went on with the banquet. Then more dancing. > More banquet and business. > T H E N - - - - -- The Grande finale. > WOW! ! You had to see this. The dancers came out in costume. > Little white bonnets and long aprons, (funny I can't remember what the men > were wearing) but they were each carrying a long white rope attached to a > giant sized lace makers pillow. The "Lacemaker" stepped up to the podium > and they placed the giant pillow in place. She had giant pins to place in > the proper holes. The dancers kind of danced and at the same time wove the > rope over and under making the stitches and finally a "tally". The > lacemaker placing the giant sized pins in the proper places. When done, the > pillow was held up so we could all see the "lace". It was a wonderful > accomplishment. The battery in my camera had gone dead just as the program > started and my extra battery was up in my room. So I got no pictures of the > dancers. But believe me cameras were flashing all over. Hopefully some > will put them up for us all to enjoy. Don't know if we can wait for the > next IOLI bulletin. > > Hope every one that went to convention had a great time. > > Patsy A.
