Workshops:

Learn to make unique, primitive hooked rugs using secondhand wool clothing and blankets at Playing Hooky Rug Studio's  retreat-style, all-day workshops. In a charming farm setting in Sandy Hook, Manitoba, you will master the techniques necessary to create your own one-of-a-kind rugs of heirloom quality. Learn the basic techniques of rug hooking to completion of a small project. And you'll be served a darn yummy lunch!

• "Your relaxed manner and enthusiasm for this art form made the workshop a real pleasure. I'm looking forward to the reunion!"

• "You designed your workshop to help us become artists, not just followers."
