Yes, indeedy….it’s almost time for our October 2 hook-in, “It’s About Time”!
This is the one where we will be showcasing all your vintage and heirloom traditional hooked rugs! To be eligible, the rug must have been made in Ontario and more than 25 years old. It could be one from your grandmother, or one that you hooked early on in your hooking career (when you were a child, right?)….or it could be one you found at auction or some other wonderful place.
Even if you don’t know the history behind your rug, we’d love to see it! Bring it along, and maybe someone in attendance can give you more info on it!
Also, don’t worry if your rug is in poor condition…..please bring it in whatever shape it’s in!
While this is an event in conjunction with the Ontario Hooking Craft Guild, you do NOT need to be a member to register your rug.
There is a whole process to getting your rug registered, and we’ve got a team geared up to make this happen on October 2. You can help us by printing and completing the registration form ahead of time. Here’s a link to the form: RUG REGISTRATION FORM It’s also available in the handy dandy tab towards the top of your screen.
But don’t worry if you can’t do that…we will have blank copies for you to fill in on October 2. If you’re unsure of what to put in the form, don’t hesitate to ask us on October 2.
Just in case you’re looking for more details:
Hope to see you there!
