Hello All! Clay & her committee rolled out the welcome mat at Sweet Briar

I am in the process of editing the mailing list for "Lace at Sweet Briar" which
will be held in mid-June in Virginia. Due to the high cost of printing and

Greetings, Spiders!!
I'm writing from cold, snow-covered Virginia! It seems as though all
the snow we didn't get for the last five years was saved up and dumped
on us over the weekend! It's beautiful, but makes travel very treacherous.
So, while thinking warm thoughts, I thought I might rem
What a week of making lace! 27 hours of class, officially. Many spent extra
hours at their projects, also.
I was in the Binche class. It was the quietest class I've even been in. The

I absolutely echo what Devon said about Sweet Briar...! It was really a
perfect retreat. I was unable to attend last year but heard how great it was
and
it met every expectation and more. I'm already looking forward to seeing
everyone again next year! Thanks to Clay Blackwell, Karen Douglas
Last week it was my pleasure to attend Lace at Sweet Briar, and I can
honestly say I have never attended a better organized event. Kudos to Clay
Blackwell for all her hard work and attention to detail, and to the other
helpers,
teachers and vendors who made it possible.
