The Dallas Lace Society
Second Quarter Winter Newsletter
May 2022
Hello
dear lace-making friends. I thought I would give you a little summary
of our April quarterly meeting in case you were unable to join us
live or by zoom.
I imagine all of you have received, via
electronic or mail, a copy of our new directory. Thank you to Kathy
and Jackie for such a very nice directory. It was a fantastic idea to
add photos and Jackie did her photo-shopping magic on the cover to
show the Christmas ornaments we had made for display. Great job.
We
have been working on the ‘Bobbin Bungees’ gifts for IOLI
convention. We have a little over 300 ready to go but we decided to
make 300 more so we can give two per person. We’ll be working on
them at upcoming meetings. Arthiss and Jackie will get supplies ready
and us organized once again. Thanks to all that are helping.
Some
of us have also been tatting and bobbin lacing the 1/8th music note
for the 2023 Nashville IOLI convention. If you need details on
joining that let me know and I will forward you their instructions.
Just another reminder about Louise’s Milanese workshop this
coming fall. It will be October 22, 23, and 24.
At the upcoming
convention they are preparing a display of notebooks to honor lacers
over 80. They are asking all lace groups to send in text about and
photos of lace makers and their lace.
We will be honoring three
who have contributed so much to our group, Rowena, Elena, and Opal.
More to come in a future email.
We have two new members. Amber
Pyle has been teaching herself some lace-making skills and is a very
accomplished tatter and needle lacer. She lives in Granbury so I
appreciate her making the long trek to come to our meetings.
Lilly
Allison of Irving joined too and brought Rowena with her. We were so
excited to see Rowena and meet Lilly. Rowena has been teaching Lilly
Torchon and she is a very good student. Welcome Amber and Lilly, I’m
sure we all look forward to getting to know you more.
Beautiful
lace making to you all,
Marilyn
Demos
