A forum to provide rug hookers and mixed media artists with contacts and communications. Post your artwork, special interests and events.
GREETINGS
while attending a hooked bag class by Jennifer Manuell (during Deanne Fitzpatrick's Creativity Symposium) I accepted the challenge to develop a register of rug hooking contacts for Atlantic Canada. So here we are...... rug hookers unite!
From Atlantic Canada and beyond..... All are welcome.
Cheers,
Heidi Wulfraat,

Ribbed Cowl
Here are the instructions for the ribbed cowl that I wore today to our group meeting. I was inspired by a similar cowl found in the Holiday 2009 edition of Vogue Knitting. It was a great way for me to use the Sari Silk yarn I bought a few years ago (knowing the perfect use for it would come along) and the extra yarn I had from some recent projects I did. |

ABOUT VIRTUAL RUG CAMP on RHD
One of our members, April DeConick has suggested that we add a virtual Rug Hooking camp to the site.
Imagine a learning platform for Rug Hookers in a warm and spirited "camp" atmosphere, open everyday, year round !!
I thought it was a great idea.!
Here's the deal:
* All of our "camp leaders" will be facilitating projects, challenges, or instruction with the intent to share their skills and the love of rug hooking with others.
*Activities within the RHD "camp" will be free of charge.
In other words, Rug Hooking Daily will not form any profit in association with Rug Camp.
* there cannot be a fee to join a camp group.
* members of RHD are welcome to join any or all CAMP ACTIVITIES which can be found in the GROUPS section of RHD
* Please remember that camp projects are meant to feature our facilitators. These folks are working voluntarily, for your enjoyment so be kind and supportive. Check them out on-Line. Get to know them.
*Facilitators can agree to check in on a class / activity once a month, daily , etc.....
*The aim of "Camp" is simply to encourage and to spark the imagination and creativity of the entire community.
_______________________________
** if you are interested in leading a camp workshop or other such activity, please feel free to contact me here on RHD or e-mail hwulfraat@thewoolworks.com.
** A VERY SPECIAL THANK YOU to April DeConick for sharing her passion, creativity and community building skills.
*** HAPPY RHD RUG CAMP EVERYONE !!!
