Canadian Lacemaker Gazette

We have many wonderful lace groups in Canada and are publishing the groups online as well as in the Summer edition of the Gazette. We hope there will be an increase in connections across Canada. Some may be looking for a group. Others are independent and may be interested in visiting a group some day.

Personal emails are not included on the website. For contact with lace groups in Canada, see group websites, blogs, etc. or email the editor: clgeditor@gmail.com (add the email to your contact list). Many thanks to all the people who assisted with this 2017 project!
