Holiday Hook In!!!

Our Holiday Hook In -- for members only -- will be on Saturday, January 28, 2017 from 10 to 3 at the Riverhead Library.  Please note the change in date and venue.  The guild is providing lunch, so please be sure to let Louise know if you will be attending.  Bring your current project as well as something for show and tell.  And don't forget to bring your dues -- still only $20 a year!

We would be remiss not to note the passing of guild member Agnes Abramski.  Agnes mastered rug hooking the minute she picked up her hook!  Every rug she made was wonderful.  She and her granddaughter were also expert raffle ticket salesmen.  We will miss her.
The Peconic Ruggers, started by Gail Horton in 1996, is a rug hooking guild from the North Fork of Long Island, New York. We meet monthly at the beautiful Hallockville Museum Farm in Riverhead, New York.
