Hooking up newfoundland
•
Two things you must know about me:
- I was born in Newfoundland
- I love to hook rugs
Now in general, I find that most Americans are not familiar with Newfoundland or hooked rugs, so when people learn these facts about me, they often look like, “I have no idea what this person is talking about.” So you can imagine my DELIGHT when I went to my rug hooking guild meeting this Sunday and the guest speaker was talking about rug hooking in Newfoundland.
The speaker, Betty Hill, is American. She and her daughter Sara have been to a lot more places in Newfoundland than I will probably ever see. They first went to Nova Scotia, which all rug hooking enthusiasts know is Mecca for our craft. But amazingly, they continued their journey on to Newfoundland, which is a big trip. It is such a big trip that I have yet to bring my husband or children there, and I have been with him since 1990.

Rug Hooking Guild of Newfoundland & Labrador
You’ll see lots of benefits for becoming a Guild member on our Membership page for sure.
But what you won’t hear, see, taste, or feel is what’s beyond the words you read here, unless you actually join the team and spend time with us.
You won’t hear words at any other rug school like: “Don’t you people sleep?” “Is your grandfather single?” “That crowd from Tilting” or “Nipply Weather”. You probably would never hear Kelley sing ‘The Butcher Boy’
You won’t see Philomena and Anne perform one of their famous skits: Aunt Aggie's famous letters offering hooking advice.
You won’t ever taste Jiggs Dinner and homemade blueberry or partridge berry pies, or have bologna, beans and toutons for breakfast.
You will never feel the joy of spending time with such a fine crowd as shows up to the hook-ins and rug school as we get here, in Newfoundland and Labrador.
So, what are you waiting for? Come on, join up now and enjoy an experience you won’
