MONTREAL HOOKED RUG EXHIBITION
30 APRIL -8th MAY
Today some of us are getting rugs together for the upcoming show . . . at first it seems easy but then we quickly realize that there are so many little things to finish!
Binding the rugs,
whipping,
making and sewing on labels,
photographing rugs,
filling out forms . . .
getting them to the show on hanging day!
and - NOT forgetting anything . . . .
For many, it is the first time showing their mats . . . thats why entering in a show is so great . . . it forces one to get it all finished and together . . . .
Making labels is important as all the information is there for the future . . . . the past history or story of the maker of the rug . . ..ask a quilt appraiser if this is not important!!
The St HENRI RUG SHOW starts Friday the 30 April with a vernisage at 5 pm
ADDRESS is 75 rue Sir Georges Etienne Cartier in the Centre St ZOTIQUE at the corner of St AMBROISE street - near the Lachine Canal
go to Google MAPS for directions . . .
Hope all interested in rug hooking in Montreal can get there!
The Show runs until 8th MAY

ROOSTERS are the poster theme this year . . .with a beautiful RUG hooked by Tony Latham photographed for the poster . . .
