I think the reason of being quite is that we have had many feasts in this time, with lots of family reunions, etc. We will soon start to write again! Be patient!
As for Facebook lace groups... I know there are many lacemakers who join them, but I think Arachne is the really interesting one, where interesting things about lace are talked about. I have not seen any Facebook group which really leads a conversation about a subject, as Arachne does. It is more a showcase of the work one does, and a long list of admirations and congratulations following. I think if you are really interested in lace, THIS is the group! Best wishes and Happy new year!!
