Teacher Bio:

Lucille grew up along the Hudson River Valley and had always been interested in primitive antiques and  painted pieces. But it was when she was studying women's history in America that rug hooking drew her in,. "Throughout my life I was looking for something, and in rug hooking I found." "I can remember my first project was the Shaker Tree of Life, a classic early American pattern." It wasn't long before her passion had her designing patterns and starting her own business. Lucille teaches all around the country and in her home studio in Rupert, Vermont. Visit her website for more information. AmericanCountryRugs.com
