Thanks for visiting my primitive rug hooking site. The New Rugs section features rugs that are available for purchase. Rugs that have been purchased or commissioned are in the Archive section.
I have two shows and one exciting event coming up. Here are the details.
The artists at TFA are planning several special events during the coming year in which we offer work that is tied together thematically. The next event -- Homegrown in the Gallery -- Spirit of America -- will be held from June 15 through July 3. We offer free shipping and ordering is easy. Be sure to watch for this exciting collection of work from TFA artists. I will have at least one new rug and a set of chair pads with a beautiful white star as its central theme.
The first show is the Blueberry Festival in Old Austerlitz, NY. It's on Sunday, July 26th from 9 am to 4 pm. There will be early 19th century crafts, demonstrations, live music, and lots of blueberries. Please visit oldausterlitz.org for more information.
The second show is the 2009 Traditional Artisans' Preview Show held by the Bedminster Land Conservancy in Bucks County, PA on September 12th and 13th. Please visit bedminsterlandconservancy.org for details.
All three events feature the best of traditional crafts. I hope you can join me in at least one!
My work is featured on traditionalfolkart.com, a showcase for a new definition of American folk art, with brilliant examples of carved figures, miniature quilts, felted and hooked rugs, fraktur, furniture and many other fine crafts. On Valentine's Day of 2008, the NY Times ran an article on my work in the Home & Garden section. I’ve been honored to be included in both the 2006 and the 2008 Early American Life Directory of the Best Traditional Craftsmen. Early American Life also selected my work for the 2008 Holiday Directory.
Thanks again for visiting -- I'm looking forward to hearing from you!
