I also was fortunate to join the Aussie's Slovenia/Russian trip the last 2 weeks of June 2012.
The Slovenian's are a wonderful, warm and welcoming people. They went out of their way to make us welcome and very special guests. We toured the country and saw many special local lace exhibits and very a very beautiful and varied country. I do encourage everyone to attend the '16 OIDFA congress if they can. Our tour there was wonderful and the "Aussies" were wonderful travel companions. Hello to Annette from the USA and I'll see you in a few years!

I have also heard that there is a reluctance in Pag to teach outsiders their special lace. This could be why there are no "how to" books available. I did a lace tour of Slovenia this year prior to Caen OIDFA and it was amazing. The OIDFA Congress in Slovenia is a not to be missed event! Their lace is beautiful and their county amazing. Their people so generous and friendly and the organised events were so professional. Annette in a cool Wollongong, Australia.
