A Gi-normous Thank You!

Well....the dust has settled after our gala event “The Heat Is ON” Hook-In & Regional Workshops on Sept 30 and we’ve taken some time to review the day, for help in planning similar events.  

The most notable thing was that our attendance almost doubled over previous years!  This was due to many factors including lots of promotion via social media, and community events both inside and outside the rug hooking world.  A big thank you to the folks who liked, shared, clicked and retweeted, as well as those who demonstrated rug hooking within the community.  
😍👏🏻👍🏻❤️

We held workshops for the first time and we want to thank all of the teachers who brought these classes to life:

• Tina Cole: Rookie Hooking,
• Loretta Moore: A Journey into the World of Primitives/Wide Cut, 
• Wendie Scott Davis: Tangle Art, and 
• Susan Clarke: The Heat is ON.

We had a great group of vendors to tempt the attendees with their wares.  A big thanks goes to them for all their work!  They included: 

• Hooked on the Lake,  
• Andjareenas, 
• O’er the Hill Jewellery, 
• Yarn-it, 
• Willow Creek Rug Hooking, 
• Thistles & Sticks, 
• Gudrun’s Hand Dyed Yarns,
• Heartfelt Fibre Arts, 
• Chris Poole Sharpening.  

As with most hook-ins, we had a fantastic display of rugs, and prizes awarded, as well as great door prizes and yummy treats.  There was a great group of volunteers within our group who helped at every stage of the project.  They made the day the success that it was.  A huge thank you to all!

...but most of all, thank you to the attendees! We hope you enjoyed the day and will come back again....in 2021!
