YES!!! I think that is a brilliant idea! Maybe just as simple as wearing something "spidery" -- a pin or a scarf, maybe an embroidered ribbon. I'm in! Nancy Connecticut, USA On Fri, Jun 24, 2022, 18:38 Ruth Lyon wrote: > It would be nice if all of us "Arachnes" would wear a ribbon or sign tha

It would be nice if all of us "Arachnes" would wear a ribbon or sign that shows that we are also "spiders" during the convention. We could meet Arachnes when we are standing in line, sitting in the restaurant, passing each other in the hall. or sitting in class. Another idea is printing simple

Wednesday the sales room is open from early morning until 6:00 and followed by a speaker from 7:00 to 8:00 pm. I appreciate the vendors getting a lunch break and early evening closing time. Janice Blair Murrieta, CA, jblace.com On Thursday, June 23, 2022, 03:08:00 PM PDT, Karen Bovard wrote:

I'm with Karen. Drinks sound much more convivial -- and I'm likely to have one even if the meeting is at noon! So save me and my lace and organize something for the evening. 🙂 On Thu, Jun 23, 2022, 18:07 Karen Bovard wrote: > How about 'drinks' instead of lunch? > I am one of the people vendi

The schedule was just slow to load. I see the sales room is closed for lunch on Wednesday for an hour from 12:30 so that might be the best day to visit with everyone.  Maybe Rosemary can find out from the host group if the hotel has a space available where we could gather with our lunches or drink

I think my initial post was back in April. The schedule on the IOLI website is not working yet as far as I can see, so without knowing what is planned for the week, maybe one of you that is not vending can make a decision on when to meet and post it, or put an Arachne notice on the Notice Board at

I would also like to get together with other Arachne friends during the IOLI convention next month. Having lunch together would be fun if that is possible. If not, we could find a quiet place where we could sit and chat, and bring our own drinks. Could someone in the hostess group help us? I’ll b

As I only heard from three other people, I doubt we will have an Arachne get together lunch, especially as two of us will be vending and in the vending room at all free times. Maybe next year when more people are willing to meet in person. By the time I get my next digest of Lace emails it will be

We had our Arachne lunch at the IOLI convention today.  There was inexpensive food for purchase in one half of the ballroom and a second private half of the ballroom was reserved for Arachne.  I think it was our largest one ever with probably 35 to 40 ladies present.  We had a fun free raffle wi

Hi Clay, We did look into using a college campus in Illinois and the expenses were still high, but the main problem was getting people from the airport to the colleges. No public transport and just very expensive taxi rides. I like your idea of getting together in the evening but most conventio
