Letter
from the President
Dear
Members,
Thank you all for your support of Dallas Lace Society. We do make a wonderful group, don't we. Congratulations to all who entered the state fair. I had fun doing it and I hope you did too. Hopefully more will give it a try next year. The demonstration day went well too, in spite of the location. Louise's Milanese class was fantastic as always and we voted, at the business meeting, to invite her back next year. I got the privilege of having her and a few of our other out-of-town members stay with me during the class. I enjoyed their company so much and we had a fun evening at the state fair watching pig races and eating cotton candy. Hope to see you all at meetings and the Christmas party. Marilyn

The
NEW Dallas Lace Society Logo Contest
The
