This meeting took place in the prestigious frame of the domain of the Baronnie de Breteville on Odon, the ancient(former) farm of the means - age having belonged to the abbey of the Mont-Saint-Michel. The barn with Tithe (XIV century) was for two days the place of meeting priviligié of the lacemakers. Besides the exhibitors (22 of 6 different countries) and the demonstrations of the lacemakers (of Canada, England and different regions of France), Cluny-Torchon's classes, Lace of Bayeux and Polychromatic of Courseulles were organized during the weekend. Trainings stakes in card as well as Duchess were possible from 9 till 12 July. Let us greet Michel Bouvot's initiative which also put in the honor the internet dentellier by the putting at disposition of the public of two Web sites: http://perso.libertysurf.fr /blondecaen and http://www.dentellieres.com.
