New England Lace Group: Annual Retreat and Workshops

Have you be intrigued by lace and lace making? Do you want to explore rare textile crafts? This is a chance to be introduced to bobbin lace and other lace community crafters and techniques. You can immerse in the retreat option, or try day classes.

Our annual retreat and workshops will be held from Thursday, May 12 to Sunday, May 15, 2022. This year we will be at Mercy by the Sea Conference Center in Madison, CT. The retreat house is located on Long Island Sound and all rooms have a private bathroom and air conditioning.

Our teachers for this year will be:

• Allie Marguccio who will be teaching Idrija Lace. Tom Marguccio will also be vending Idrija lace supplies.
  
• Holly Van Sciver will be offering beginning, intermediate or advanced Torchon, Bedfordshire, Bucks Point, Lester, Honiton, Russian, Hungarian, contemporary lace and more. Holly will also be our vendor.
  
• Jill Hawkins will once again be teaching a beginner bobbin lace class for those who are new to lacemaking, or those who have been away from lacemaking for a while and need to go back to basics. This class will be subsidized by NELG.
  
  
  

  Registration is open from February 1 through April 15. Paid registrations received by March 15 will receive up to $20 early bird discount on accommodations and workshop fees. Detailed information is available on the New England Lace Group website.
