Hello my fellow lacers,


I certainly hope that all of you are doing well, staying healthy, and finding ways to entertain yourselves with some lace making during this quarantine. There can be so much added stress due to Covid-19 but I hope all you have found healthy coping techniques. We are all anxious about when we can feel safer in public and what our daily lives will be like in the future. Just remember to always aspire to be kind (the word kind has so many beautiful synonyms).


We have had two successful and fun Zoom chat/business meetings. It was wonderful to “see” all of you that could join. As you might imagine there wasn’t a lot of business to zoom about. Thanks to all who could report. We accepted the April minutes and the financial report that Debbie and Linda submitted and that were emailed to the group. Dorothy would love any suggestions for demonstrations that we could do in spite of quarantine. Kelly is always looking for items for the newsletter so please send her your ideas, photos of lace, lace book reviews, or anything you think we might be interested in. We will schedule another zoom chat in a couple of weeks but maybe we’ll try an evening to accommodate those who can’t zoom during the day.


I have spoken with Louise about our scheduled late September workshop and we've agreed to reschedule it for Sept. 25 thru the 27th of 2021.


I send my best wishes to you all,

Marilyn

President of the Dallas Lace Society

Workshops


The Teneriffe Lace Class was really great! Dorothy Morgan supplied the group with everything needed to make several projects.

We have scheduled our Fall Workshop with Louise Colgan for Sept. 26 – 28, 2020 with Louise Colgan. Stay tuned for more details.



Demos

We just had a demo for the Dallas Textile Guild on February 13th. Dorothy gave a very informative presentation on the history of lace making. The group was full of others who play with string and we were will received.


Our next demonstration is scheduled for March 13, 14, & 15 at the Dallas Quilt Show at Market Hall. It's an annual event that's always a lot of fun.

We also will be setting up for a demo at C.C. Young on March 19th at 10am. Our demo will run for a couple of hours and we will need several volunteers so let us know if you would like to participate.
