We started our little guild in the Bloomington Illinois
area in 1993 as novices.
—– You can do the same in your area!
_________________________________________________________________
In the beginning we unanimously agreed NOT
to have dues, NOT to have by-laws or a constitution. We didn’t want a board
or election of officers. We didn’t even want a newsletter! We decided to keep it simple and fun.

We simply teach, present programs, and demonstrate lace at festivals and other events. We
meet the second thursday of the month in members homes and occasionally plan a special day on the weekend.
