September meeting

After a rainy week, the Cranberry Lacers were very glad to gather in lacemaking and friendship on this Saturday at the Franklin Township public library.  Pat and Beth shared stories of their lace adventures this August in Europe, attending the OIDFA Congress in the Netherlands and then the World Lace Event Brugge in Belgium.  Pat brought lots of show and tell by way of books and patterns!



Today, Mary was busy tatting and has found herself quite engaged in tatting lately.




As per usual, Beth was working on beautiful Binche, but today brought a piece that involved a bit of color - quite unusual!




Other pieces on our pillows today:







As always, Pat is an incredibly patient and kind teacher, always helpful, as she is here with Veronica.



We meet every third Saturday of the month for a day of lacing and conversation. We are a group of friendly lacemakers with a range of experience - we are lucky enough to have a professional instructor to teach the beginners and work with the experienced.  Anyone is welcome to join us!  The room we meet in at the library is large with lots of light.  Feel free to email us at cranberrylacers@gmail.com for more information.Cranberry Lacers has been a chartered chapter group of IOLI for 25 years.
