Devon, I agree with what you've said here - and I certainly wasn't objecting to
producing a detailed description of the course.
I think it was the *amount* and *detail* of what was being asked for, and the

Thank you, Ruth, for sending us your experience with the 2004 IOLI Convention
Committee. You are an expert, I believe, in teaching Lace 2000 computer

year's convention, and am pleased you let us know directly.

Hi Sharon,
A smaller alternative to the 'snake' would be to draw a leaf sort of

pearl cotton or similar this can be turned into a fish. You can add an
eye with a bead and bundle the pairs at the end just as you do with the
