Make it Exhibition in Farnborough

Venue: FIVE, Gate F, Aerospace Boulevard, Farnborough, GU14 6XA

Ann Day will be collecting the names of those who are willing to help on The Lace Guild stand at the exhibition. It is always interesting, talking to the visitors, showing them how lace is made and you get a chance to go round the exhibition for free. You just need to be a member of The Lace Guild and enthusiastic about lace and lacemaking. You do not have to be a superb or very experienced lacemaker, just capable of showing someone how cloth stitch is made.

Ann would also like to borrow lace for the stand. Either things you have made this year or earlier. All levels of expertise are welcome as it is good to show people what can be done by beginners as well as more experienced lacemakers. Contact Ann Day
