Dear Lacemakers, We have hundreds of members in various countries who do not read any other lace publications. We know hundreds of lurkers are subscribed to Arachne. Many days, there is nothing in my inbox. How can that be? It is time for some of you who are younger to participate. There IS Lace news!!! And this is a safe place to practice your reporting skills. Please - *someone who has never written to us* - write about one of the following: 1. The May/June 2016 9th annual Lace issue of PieceWork magazine. (Arachne archives contain what has been said about past issues.) 2. The Spring 2016 IOLI (International Organization of Lace Inc.) bulletin. Front cover is bobbin lace made by our member Devon. Another member - Jean Leader, of Glasgow Scotland - has been nominated for President of IOLI. There is a long educational article by Jane Atkinson of the UK. And there are other lace experts represented who are Arachne members. Do you know these people with magical abilities? At the least, you might publicly thank them for sharing so much time and talent. 3. What is in the most recent Lace Guild (UK) bulletin? 4. What is in the most recent OIDFA bulletin? 5. What is the Lace news from Canada, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Australia? What are the Slovenian hosts of OIDFA up to in the weeks leading up to the 2016 Congress? What do you mean? NO NEWS? Please write. Keep Arachne vital and relevant. Jeri Ames in Maine USA Lace and Embroidery Resource Center.
