We’re not in Kansas Anymore…

Auntie Em, a twister, a twister!  That right folks, we were caught smack dead in the eye of the storm.  But not to worry, we all made it and more importantly all the wool made it!  Other than some heavy rain and a tornado alarm going off, it was actually fairly uneventful.  Definitely a good day to be inside hooking.

We were in Punta Gorda vending and teaching at the Harbor Hook-In sponsored by Searsport Rug Hooking.  This is our second year attending and this event was even better than last year.  There is tons of space, great lighting, a small exhibit, a raffle and over 12 vendors – this event has it all!  Plus, let’s not forget it’s in sunny Florida during the winter!  If you are looking to escape the cold next year, this is a must attend event, I promise you won’t be disappointed.

While at the event, I was asked by numerous people if I knew where all the Florida guilds/groups were.  I decided to do some research and have attached my findings below.  Here it is all in one spot – the Florida Rug Hooking Groups.  If I missed anything or any information below needs to be updated, please reply to this post.

Unfortunately the Not So Old Crows in Zephyrhills has somewhat disbanded, the shop owner closed & moved out west in 2010-2011.
However there are a few of the group still around but somewhat scattered in Central Florida.
If anyone is interested in getting together in the Pasco County area of West Central Florida I am still here and hooking/drawing/dying in my free time.
