SUMMARY: Founded in 1953, IOLI has gone through a few name adjustments(listed under publishers). The earliest Bulletin I've been able to find, in the IOLI Lending Library archives, is a few tattered pages from April 1964. Their records jump to a few pages from 1968, then to September of 1969. After that, they have more regular run of issues available. I know there were earlier newsletters than that, because they are advertised for sale in some of the later issues. Early issues have reprints of many articles from magazines like "Needlecraft" and "Modern Priscilla", as well as wonderful photos of lace from various collections and newspaper clippings about various members and exhibits. The early newsletters for each year were bound together in custom-printed binders to help keep everything tidy and organized. (Bibliographer's Note- I have since run across a small article by the IOLI Historian who puts the first newsletter dated 1957-58)

I had the strong impression when I first ran across this organization that tatters weren't really welcome. My perceptions have changed on that, as I've gotten involved and read more of the newsletters. I'm very happy about that. I love the look of many kinds of lace, but tatting is what I chose to take up. Being a member of IOLI gives me the opportunity to learn more about all the different types of laces and how they're made, access to the awesome IOLI lending library, and contact with other lacers. As an organization, it gets my two thumbs up. You get a lot of bang for your membership bucks. The website and it's many services, teaching and educational materials like slide shows, samplers, regional clubs - and have I mentioned they have a lending library?! Oh, and there is a superb quarterly magazine. The Bulletin has a good mix of patterns, news, and information. I'm still trying to piece together a complete run of the back issues as of this writing, so I used the first bulletin of my new membership as my sample issue(see left column). I will make use of the lending library to create a catalog of all the issues they have, but their collection of the back issues doesn't start until about 1968-69. I'm leaving all the blank years at the top of this page visible, so maybe someone will take pity and make issues of the early years available to IOLI's lending library and maybe the Bibliography Project...

They have a website: http://www.internationalorganizationoflace.org/ .

Anyone with more information about this publication, or has issues to donate or sell, can contact me through My Contact Page.

THE BULLETIN: International Organization of Lace, Inc. Catalog

In the Summer 2003 Historian's report: "...Included is a copy of the very first newsletter dated 1957-58. It is typed on notebook paper for a ring binder. The practice of using notebook paper continued into 1959. Included in the initial issue is a synopsis of the first business meeting of the Old Lacers, held August of 1954 in Miami Beach..." - Agnes Vuolo
