In left, Michel Bouvot in company of Claudette (his wife) and Chantal (at the bottom). In detail you will see splendid paperboards of chantilly of Courseulles; It is old from 19th, time Napoleon III. The new one, also at Claudette with the marriage of the stained glass (news passion of Claudette) and of lace. For a first attempt, it rather is successful!

I made the knowledge of Marie who had an incredible silk set: reels with 6 bits but also reels with 1 only bit (kind silk twist). Marie will be present at Creully, in July 2003, with of course her multicoloured reels but also with the worms with silk. In detail, admire the work completed with this silk by Nathalie Lemaitre (whom I could not photograph because pause lunch). In right-hand side, here Nelly Guilloteau de Montigny Bretonneux. It is carrying out a shawl black  (half lace, half black silk) of its own creation.
