A Day at Winann's

What a lovely day for Connecticut Lace Day. Winann was our hostess for this month's gathering. We had great stories, news about the exhibit at the Wadsworth, discussion about the trip to RISD, and a little news regarding THE JACKET!

The Jacket will be 'unveiled on December 10th - tickets are not yet available. Soon to be announced. This is the Jacket that was begun at Plimoth - a recreation of a 17century jacket . This blog will give you a bit of the end of the story of several years of making this jacket. We at NELG had the opportunity to have a representative from Plimoth speak to us at one of monthly meetings. Some of our members have worked on making the lace and did some of the embroidery. Here's the list to those individuals that help create this jacket

I'm looking forward to seeing the jacket!
