2015 Woolwrights Annual
Spring Hook-In
It all started off with the ringing of the Woolwright bell. On March 21, 2015, The Woolwrights of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, held our annual spring hook-in. It was an incredible day! We had an outstanding turnout for the event! We were able to entertain friends and family from as far away as Ontario, Canada, Texas, Colorado, and Nebraska. We had registrants that ranged from twelve years old to spring chickens in their 80's. We had a truly wonderful group of vendors that traveled from near and far and our own Woolwright members contributed to the items that were for sale during the day. We had a great response for our mat swap event that was held to honor our Mat Swap Queen, Marty Petkosh. We received 24 mats with the theme of "animals" to exchange with others this year.
We held a special exhibition for one of our members, Marion Sachs (first photo below). Marion has been hooking for 15 years and she is a fine hooker. She stated that she once hooked a six and she will "never go there again" Her preference is a three cut. Marion dyes all her own wool. She is also a great quilter. She is our dear friend, our teacher, and most importantly, our bell ringer to call us all to order on meeting days. You will the rugs that we displayed in honor of Marion (farther below) starting with a photo of Marion and ending with a photo of Marion.
