Periodically we invite guest instructors to give a workshop on a topic, or on a technique in which they are skilled.
October 22, 23 and 24, 2025. We will be offering a rug hooking class with Jyl Robbins.
It will be held at the Old Rocks Church 260 Mt Airy- Harbourton Rd. Lambertville, NJ 08530
Jyl Robbins is a McGown trained instructor and completed her certification at the Northern
Teachers Workshop in 2007. She began hooking at the age of eight thanks to her mother,
Joan Blauvelt, who also was a rug hooking instructor in Southeastern Michigan.
Once a year guild members enjoy a long weekend together hooking. This is a wonderful opportunity to spend time with each other, share stories and advise. We begin the retreat with a guild meeting and follow it with an auction.
