Hello lacemakers,
Is anyone arriving at Indianapolis Airport on Saturday, July 16 around 9:30
am?
I would like to share the taxi ride with other lacemakers.
It appears that the shuttle service organized by convention hosts is only on
Sunday.

Hello spiders,
I ordered the wrong bobbin for myself..if anyone is interested in a Long
Square Bobbin, with the Spider & lace design, please let me know!
I would like to recover my costs, $15.00 US including postage to Canada and
USA.

Dear Janice and others
I enjoyed meeting other Arachne members very much! The lunch was just lunch
and overpriced!
I think we will see more participants if the cost was lower and that's what
this is about!
Thanks for taking this on,

I love all the ideas being thrown around, I think it's great that there's so
much enthusiasm about the 20th anniversary.
One idea in particular took my fancy, a tool box. One of the IOLI
conventions recently had wood boxes made and they were beautiful..I'd love
that to be one of the choices.
I have learned so much from the list, I am ever thankful. I'm not sure when
I joined the list but probably about 2000 as I started making lace in 2000.
I do have a question, I'm sure many friendships have been made through
Arachne, but how many friendships have been made from an exchange?
Thanks Alice for sharing your un-conference week. Sounds like a great way
to spend the week!
We have done something similar with the Canadian Gazette Forum members for
an event where some members were attending and others had to stay home.
Ours was done via the net...no face to face contact!
Hello lacemakers,
