Summer Newsletter



Hi Lacers,
We have had three successful Saturday meetings now and are looking forward to our next one on July 12.  There has been a good mixture of beginners and those who know enough to help beginners and we are enjoying seeing what everyone is working on.

We had a productive business meeting on April 29th.  We signed the contract to have Louise Colgan teach a workshop September 26 to 28 of 2015.  If anyone has an idea for a workshop they would like in 2014 please let me know and we’ll see what we can do.  We have five new items in the library.  We made $141.00 on lace sales at the Texas Discovery Gardens gift shop.

If you know of a member who is in need of some well wishes from us please let Rowena know.

Linda and Rita Cole found a fun thread store on Rita’s last visit to the big city.  It is Threads That Bind, mainly a quilting shop but some fun threads too.  It is on the southeast quadrant of Park and Independence in Plano.  Their website is threadsthatbindoftexas.com.  Linda has also been looking at threads at these websites:
http://www.redrockthreads.com/aurifil-thread/
https://www.valdani.com/products
www.superiorthreads.com

If you come across any interesting ideas or products please let us know so we can share them.  Susan is always looking for your photos of lace and interesting ideas to add to our website too.

Looking forward to seeing your projects,
Marilyn


Next business meeting: July 29 @ 12:30
Lace demo at the Quilt Plano: August 15-16
