Workshop
Mug Rug Workshop
Introduction to Rug Hooking
Beaconsfield Library / Discovery Room
Sunday, September 28th 2025
The City of Beaconsfield invited us to hold a workshop in the Discovery Room of the Library, and we were delighted to accept the opportunity.
We prepared mug rug kits for each participant, drawing simple patterns on burlap stretched and stapled over wooden hoops (sold for making wreaths). We included adequate wool strips, size 6 cut, in assorted colours plus bilingual instructions and a hook.
