SUMMARY:Folk Rug Hooking
DESCRIPTION:In this two-day weekend intensive workshop\, we will learn the art and technique of folk hooked rugs. We will apply the lovely qualities of 19th century–based hooked rugs—playfulness\, beautiful color\, and a lack of adherence to realism\, perfection\, and perspective—to the work we do together. \n\n\n\nFollowing a survey of examples of folk rugs\, we will jump right in and begin to make a small hooked rug using cut wool strips on a linen foundation. The basic techniques will be demonstrated\, and individual instruction will help each student master the fundamentals. At the end of the first session\, the group will gather to ask questions so that solutions and tips can be shared with everyone. \n\n\n\nDuring the second day\, we will continue developing our rugs and turn our attention to finishing techniques. While most rugs will not likely be fully completed during the workshop\, Sunday will include a detailed demonstration on how to finish the rug\, including how to apply a tape binding. Sample pieces will be available so students can practice a portion of the final hand sewing themselves\, gaining hands-on experience with how the binding process works. Each participant will also receive a handout with finishing techniques clearly described in text and photos\, providing a helpful reference to guide them as they complete their rugs at home. \n\n\n\nStudents are asked to bring source material for their rug design to the first session. This can be a drawing\, photograph\, magazine clipping\, or anything that can serve as a starting point. We will transfer the image to the linen and choose wool to work with. The rug we begin in the workshop will measure 8” by 8” or smaller. \n\n\n\nClass level \n\n\n\nNo prior experience with rug hooking is necessary—just an interest in learning the technique.
