I agree with Bev, that Clay's work creating and continuing the Sweet Briar
retreat warrants inclusion as a modern lace mover-and-shaker.
Also past and present officers of the major lace organizations, such as IOL
Good idea, Clay.

It seems to me that this contribution to Arachne has just opened up a "Who's
Who" in the modern lace world! Clearly, Bev Walker and her leadership of the
Canadian Lacemaker Gazette stands out as a major contributor!! In addition to
that, Bev has routinely shared her expertise with this list, and
I think they might shock the audience more than make themselves blush, LOL.

Hello Jeri and everyone
Thank you for your thoughtful tribute Jeri, and excellent review of the
Canadian Lacemaker Gazette!
For my part it was the best publishing experience ever, guiding a national
