As you all know I am very new to lace & have had many lavers helping me.  I 
would like to publication thank you all.  Plus would like to tell you about a 
wonderful experience I just had in Yorkshire, England.  We flew over for about 
15 days with our dear friend Janet & her husband.  While there Janet worked 
with me & then took me to her local lace group.  They were wonderful & so 
helpful.  My first experience was at a lace day in Pudsy where I met lavers 
from the region.  Then a few days later was lace class.  Francis, their teacher 
lent me her pillow, bobbins & thread.  Then started me on my first ever snake.  
I not only was able to finish it, by did a second one as well!!  Two finished 
projects in a row!
Then between seeing sights in (I think 7  counties) the area (4 miles short of 
1500 miles) we found time to attend my first ever lace fair.  I was fortunate 
to meet Christine Springett who was kind enough to explain her new ornament 
design to me & signed a copy of the new ornament pricking & directions.  What a 
kind person. I also met many many vendors (think here were 30 there) & most 
were very willing to take a few minutes to answer my questions which were 
probably pretty basic to them.  Regardless, they were so helpful and patient.  
So thanks to Janet, Frances, their class, Christine & all the others I met at 
these events I had a super time & learned so much.  To those of you who have 
never experienced any of these, it is well worth it to go wherever you are.
Here in the States, I cannot ever forget Jo Ann & her patience of Job with my 
bumblings.
