Dear Lyn and Others interested,
Since you attended the IOLI Convention, you will be familiar with the Chesapeake Region Lace Guild. I think they were looking for demonstrators at the Maryland event in a recent newsletter, but I did not find it on their website. Go to to _www.crlg.org_ (http://www.crlg.org/) . There is a "contact us" option on the Events and Demonstrations page. Or, go to your IOLI Members Handbook and find the section called "Lace Groups Listed by States, then other Countries. You will find a contact under Maryland and another under Virginia. The Finger Lakes Lace Group may have a contact for the New York State Sheep and Wool event. You reported that you attended this and will know how to contact someone there, or look in the IOLI Members Handbook for contact.

The same may go for weavers, but since bringing a loom for handwork isnââ¬â¢t practical, I donââ¬â¢t notice that as much. Anyhow, there are 2 very popular wool conventions in the middle Atlantic states, the Maryland Sheep and Wool, and the New York State Sheep and Wool. Iââ¬â¢m wondering about lace demonstration in those areas, and have emailed the Maryland Sheep and Wool people to find out if one would have to pay for demonstrating, since no profit would be made by the demonstrator, directly or indirectly. It might require making lace with laceweight yarn, but there are designs for such things. - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
