Firstly, before I ask my curly question â I am SO pleased to hear your wonderful âLace, not Laceâ is going so well, Devon. You have put so much into it, and I am thrilled for you that it is such a success.
Now â the IOLI competition has classes for 2 groups of people â Teachers, and Non- Teachers. I have been a Teacher in Bobbin Lace and Needlelace â only. I am a Learner in Tatting and have never taught that craft. So â do I enter a piece in the Non Teacher class, - or would Tatting be classed as âLaceâ and I am therefore put in the Teacher class? I have written to the competition convenor, but not had a reply yet. I asked a few people at our Lace Day yesterday, in Melbourne , just for curiosity, but no-one had a clear answer. Most thought I would be classed as a Non- teacher, though. My thought , at the moment, is to do an âOwn Designâ, and then they can put it in either section, as the Teacher class must be an Own Design, and the Non- teachers have 2 classes to chose from â Own design, or someone elseâs design!! But it is an interesting question â if you teach one type of lace . â does that class you as a Teacher for all Laces? Regards from Liz.
