Hello lace fans!

The project is still on track with the overall goals—lace in Wikipedia is improving, and new editors are coming on board. I created some training videos to get people started which can help you to understand what you’d need to do to begin.

I will schedule another “Welcome | Project Overview” kind of Zoom session soon. But I’m waiting for the next issue of the International Organization of Lace Bulletin to drop, because there’s an article in there about the project. I hope new people will become curious about it from that. So I’ll do it after that rolls out.

Check in here for updates, or sign up for the Google Group and I’ll post there too.

In the short term I’m tied up with our annual lace retreat, but I’ll get back to you shortly if you have questions or comments.

Thanks so much for your interest in this project!
