Les Dentelles

No, this is not about a visit to a dentist.

Dentelle is lace.

Marie-Annick enjoys making lace. She invited me to join her and her friends to go to a lace exposition in Cluny.

I didn't expect it to be such a large exhibit. It was held in 2 buildings! I should have brought my rollator.

This is actual pottery using lace pressed into the clay to create the decoration.

For all my quilt making friends, here's another idea. Between the quilt and the lace I can't imagine how many hours of work this represents! Apparently it was a group project and Marie-Annick had made two of the lace squares. Here's a close-up...

There were a variety of hats using lace...

and dolls...and miniature scenes...

I appreciated the practical things the most, such as the lace drape and hand bags. There was a place for food with tables and chairs so I settled to wait for Marie-Annick. Then this lady came by. 

I'm not sure if she was wearing too much lace or if she needed a long skirt with even more lace.
