Stop Press
ON this page we post information of events of interest to Guild members and other lacemakers that would normally appear in our magazine, Lace, but which was received too late to include in our current issue. Occasional corrections to the magazine or our publications are also posted here. Items are listed by date of posting, with most recent postings listed first. The Lace Guild also has a Facebook page where you news and information can be found.

Christmas Decorations Errata
We apologise that in the new Christmas Decorations book the prickings for
Snowflake 1 (p. 23) and Snowflake 2 (p. 32) have been published at the wrong size. The prickings for them should be reduced to 90% so that they are just under 70mm high. The correct prickings can be downloaded here as
PDF or
Word files but you should check that they have printed at the correct size from your computer.
