I joined a group this year in my neighbourhood which meets weekly, wonderful ladies that have been so helpful. Most of them have been hooking for at least 35 years. I also did my first workshop this year , Celtic letter , which was a three day workshop in my area as well.

That is great you were able to join a group of rug hookers in your area, you may be able to teach them something you learned in your course.

I’ve gone to a craft group, and there were a few rug hookers there. They showed me a few things, but they weren’t teachers they have gone to other shows , out of state. I live in a very small remote town in Michigan and there is really nothing to offer around here so I have it just trying to learn on my own.

We have lots of free courses to watch online that may help with some questions you may have.

I’ve gone to two hook in events in Boone, Iowa. The first one was when I had just started and I was so inspired by the beautiful things the more experienced hookers were working on. Plus everyone there was so welcoming and encouraging.

The rug hooking communities are wonderful! That is great you were surrounded with beautiful rugs and inspiration.

I’ve only hung out with other hookers at your studio last year at the September workshop. Very inspiring! Since I started hooking on line during Covid, I’m not used to being in a group.

I’ve only hooked with others in Deanne’s studio and loved it. Some friends have expressed interest in learning. Also online have in the past done some inspiration sessions.
