Wool n Roses Antique Roses Hooked Rug I started collecting and then selling antiques 20 years ago. During my early days of selling, I discovered Antique American Hooked Rugs through a West Coast dealer who had a source for really hard to find gorgeous rugs from Maine. I knew I was hooked when I realized that I wanted to buy everything she had for sale! But I knew that if I wanted more rugs I would have to either travel to Maine to buy them at better prices or make them myself, which made more sense. However, back then in those pre-internet days, it was hard to find out much about rug hooking while living on the West Coast and so it was years before I finally took my first rug hooking class and made my first rug in the spring of 2000 and subsequently began dying my own wool; all of which was, for the most part, thanks to the internet. Last year, I decided to indulge my passion for rugs by using my love of color and creativity to pay for my habit by selling a bit of wool.That's how Wool n Roses was born. Named after two of my most favorite things in the world. I sincerely hope to be able to honor the long tradition and beautiful art form of rug hooking with my hand dyed wool. It is my wish that you will love my wool as much as I do! Happy Hooking!
