Lace Event Spain: VIII Encuentro de Encaje de Bolillos y Multilabores Villablino – March 9, 2014

VIII Encuentro de Encaje de Bolillos y Multilabores Villablino (León, Castile y León)

Date: Sunday, March 9, 2014
Time: 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM
Place: Polideportivo Municipal de Villablino

This event was nicely promoted in 2012, however recently there is very little information to go on. So I’m assuming sponsorship is the same as in past years. Last year’s event had about 150 participants from León, Galicia, Asturias and Cantabria.
