Our class was featured in the Ipswich local news! We hope that more people in the region become interested in this historic and unique local craft.

I took a short trip to Pillowlace Lane….

Lacemakers in the UK are succeeding in expanding the lace community with events and workshops. We could learn from them!

Beginner bobbin lace workshops are being scheduled. Sign up on our Contact Form to be notified of the dates and locations.

April is getting away from me, but I want to schedule a zoom for the Wikipedia project this spring still. Stay tuned.

A new Introduction/Overview of the project on Zoom will be scheduled soon. You can learn more about the project from the videos until then.

There’s a way to designate an “Institution” and create a collection of images from that museum, which could be handy in the lace community editing projects.

Our first meeting will be an overview of the Enhancing Lace in WIkipedia project, with the issues and the goals of the project outlined. Although we may have time to cover a few technical things, it won’t be a training session per se.

But if you are curious about the project and are considering becoming an editor of Wikipedia, we can help you to understand the scope and the basic features of adding content, fixing typos, offering images, and sprucing up the pages in the scope of this project.

While going down one rabbit hole, I happened upon another one. There was an excellent list of early lace books all in one place that I hadn’t seen before. And then I realized how many more of these patterns were already in Wikimedia Commons….
