The 53 annual IOLI convention
The dancer group had a real surprise for us. For sure, this bobbin waltz was a new dance for them. Large bobbins, large pins and large lace: look at the detail, there is almost a square tally!

When the new board members were introduced, past presidents as well as new members were holding to the same thread, symbol of continuity. Then the new president offered a present to the former president Louise Colgan.

Voilà, la convention est terminée, Louise vous dit au revoir et à
bientôt, à Sebourg les 9 et 10 juin 2007 car c'est le Canada qui sera l'invité
d'honneur. En attendant, voici les bénévoles des 'associations dont Louise est
présidente : "Dentelle Québec Lace" et "Les dentellières du
Québec". Croyez nous, elles ont fait un boulot fantastique pour que cette superbe
manifestation se passe sans problème.
Mais, ce reportage n'est pas tout à fait terminé : je vous ai dit tout à l'heure qu'il
y avait plusieurs excursions le mercredi, nous avons eu la chance de rester une semaine
supplémentaire, alors voici deux autres sites où les Dentellières du Québec avaient
installé des dentelles .....
Voilà!, the convention is over, Louise says good bye and see you soon, in
Sebourg, June 9 and 10, 2007, where Canada will be our guest of honour. In the meantime,
here are the guilds volunteers Louise chairs for: “Dentelle Quebec Lace” and
l’ “Association des Dentellières du Québec Inc.”. Believe us, they made a
fantastic work so this event could take place smoothly and without any problem.
But, the report is not quite complete yet: I told you earlier there was more than a choice
for the Wednesday tour, as we had the chance to extend our stay for one more week, we can
present two other site where the Quebec lacemaker had put laces…
