The Minnesota Lace Society members enjoy sharing our passion for lace. You can see demonstrations of lacemaking and meet members at community events where our members make lace using many different techniques. We hope you’ll come and visit at one of our events!
Members may be available to provide lacemaking demonstrations at your event. Do you have a favorite lace? Are you interested in a particular type of lace?
