Thank you so much for visiting us at Banfields. The feedback was fantastic.

Good on you. Well done. Great to see volunteering can happen again. Keep up the graft work. History is so important.

Good to see the lace being shown again. The residents would have loved it. Just to clarify, there is quite a bit of detail about the lace pieces on their catalogue files. As curator I did a major display of this lace for an PINP Open Day, and it gathered a lot of interest. I have also used it in several talks at historical society, nursing homes, and a FOCIS GM. Years ago Patricia Baird and I took the whole collection up to the NGV for their textile curator to go through for us, then I took it to the Victorian Embroiderers' Guild for their lace group to run their magnifying glasses over. It was a fascinating day there because they had big archival drawers full of reference lace to help work out what was what for Kel's collection. PINP p/t receptionist Lyn Blom also did research work on the collection during lockdown. When I was first sorting it about 2012, I had nowhere to sort it and spread it out to archive it into acid free tissue, so my daughter PINP volunteer Karen Eddy and I booked the board room at the Penguin Parade and used the big table in there. While it was all spread out I invited many of the staff to come in and look, which they did. It is a wonderful collection. Let's hope we can some day have an appropriate display area to have pieces on display on rotation.

How wonderful Karen, l know you must be in your elect there.

That building was my office for 15 months as I catalogued 4500 odd historic archives. All 27 photo albums worth were found in that office in a multitude of boxes somewhere in Nature Parks various building or had been donated to FOCIS. Lin Starke

Coming up this Saturday 7th January, which looks like being a perfect 24 degrees for spreading a picnic rug and dancing to some of the well-known and loved line-up they have coming. Very nice way to spend the day on Churchill Island. 🎸🎺😄
