[lace] RIP Marianne Stang

2020-10-08 Thread pene
Dear fellow lacemakers,
Last Thursday, 1st October, 2020, one of our favourite German lacemakers,
Marianne Stang, passed away. I am sure that there are many lacemakers who
will have known her longer than the 15 years that I have, but I will miss
her very much.
When I met her in Pärnu in July, 2005 at the first Estonian Lace
Festival that I attended, I had no idea of what sort of person she was,
but soon discovered that she was friendly, kind, generous, tenacious and
hard working, but always humble & cheerful. 
I hope that she has left behind many lacemakers who have fond memories of
her. 
Yours sadly,Penelope Piip An Aussie lacemaker in Tartu, Estonia.

Dear Clare,
My answer to you is now my answer to everyone looking for bobbin lace
instruction. The Lace Museum in Sunnyvale, CA holds virtual beginner
classes. You take them in your home!

https://thelacemuseum.org/workshops.html  Beginning classes will be given
in Dec., Jan and February.

The IOLI is offering exactly the same class through agreement with the Lace
Museum in November. Details are here

Clare - in the same way we refer people to The Lace Guild, you could refer 
your friend to IOLI to ask if they have anyone in that area.


Malvary in Ottawa, Canada - still a couple of thousand kilometres from 
California, so I can't help personally.

Subject: [lace] Lace teachers in/near Idyllwild CA or Long Beach CA

Hi all,

A friend of mine in CA is looking to try bobbin lace. Can anybody point me
at a possible teacher in the Idyllwild area or the Long Beach area?

I am looking at options at the moment, name and a contact email would be
great, then I can pass that on to my friend.

Many thanks,
Clare
