I wanted to let everyone know how special it is to have a nice lace group! Besides Arachne, I really enjoy my local guild. The ladies are so wonderful! We had a small meeting yesterday but were fortunate to have 2 newish members and 2 long-time, greatly missed members in attendance. It's so nice to reconnect with our lace friends. Our guild is planning a small display at the Albuquerque Public Library during the month December. They will be displayed in 2 flat, locked cases and one medium pedestal case. Members have been hard at work creating ornaments for a small tree in the pedestal case. One of our newer members has been very prolific with her ornaments. Another busy lacemaker has been hard at work on many, many bangle ornaments. Inspiring to get more than my piddly two finished! We also have a holiday potluck for our December meeting. We like to do an ornament swap at this meeting. In general, there are two swap boxes: one for purchased/non-handmade and another for handmade ornaments. To me, this is the best part of all of our meetings. A wonderful chance to trade for a lovely handmade piece by a dear friend. I'm also looking forward to the card swap on Arachne! Several of my guild members are also participating. It is so nice to have so many lace connections. I hope everyone else is hard at work and enjoying making lace.
