Greetings, I am new to the list. i've been lurking for a couple of weeks. This is my first post. Making lace outdoors is one of my absolute favorite things to do. I live in a rural area and I frequently walk down the road to the family farm to perch under a tree and work. My other favorite place is the grounds of the Spa State Park, which is home to the National Museum of Dance and the Summer Home of the New York City Ballet. Ballet being one of my passions, I love sitting to make lace on the lovely grounds and seeing the comings and goings between the dance studios. You can actually watch classes there, but I prefer to be outside and catch the occasional glimpse of what's going on and listen to it. I bring bobbin lace, crochet lace or whatever needlework needs attention that day :) It's not too far from the town of Saratoga Springs so you can pop over there for lunch or a trip to the needlework shop. It's a place sometimes frequented by other artists, which can lead to some neat conversations. Bobbin lace tends to draw a lot of attention. :) Happy Lacing, Niamh
