This is a picture of the display that I have put up so far anyways. I will be adding to it tomorrow when I go back, in the morning, but, this is most of it anyways. I set all this up myself so it took a lot longer than I thought that it would have taken. Thank goodness I went in the morning!!I will be bringing my gripper frame with me and strip cutter and sitting and hooking with a friend. A few people should be coming over the weekend to help out. We will also have a Q-Snap with some burlap in it for people to try hooking if they want. It's always good to get people to pull those first few loops and get them "hooked!" I think that it will be great to show people how the fabric is cut and then hooked into patterns but also that you can use old clothing or hand-dyed wool if you like.
So what do you think of it so far? I will take some more pictures tomorrow :)

Wish it wasn't about 3000 miles away! lol Never thought much about hooking when a Michigan and Ohio resident, what a shame.
Your display is well on it's way. Have fun!
Just finished my first rug, and am deep into the design of my second. I'M HOOKED.
I love your display, and am curious about some of the smaller pieces, like the little house. I love little primitive hooked houses! Also....that penny circle rug is wonderful! I'm thinking of doing something like that. It looks like a fabulous way to use lots of color and lots of cut wool strips that have just been sitting in baskets and bags! Hope your show is productive!
