Hand-hooked Rugs & Whimsical Folk Art at Old Crow Farm

Here at Old Crow Farm Winter has come, even though we seem to have warmer days in the middle of snow days!!! Rather unusual for Vermont!!! ; )

I had a wonderful Vermont Hand Crafters show at the Sheraton in Burlington, VT. I am finishing up special orders for Santas and getting things sent out or delivered. See a selection of my Santas at Grand Isle Art Works at Grand Isle, VT. A great Gallery...visit if you can! ; )

For those of you who have asked...
(My hand hooked rugs range in price from approx $300.00 to $1,500.00, depending upon the size and the design. Chairpads and small pieces are approx $70.00 to $125.00. Thank you asking about the price range of rugs and other hooked pieces!)

In this tranquil setting, I hope you will enjoy traveling back with me to a time of "simple folks and gentle pleasures".

These days, my inspiration comes from vintage hooked rugs, old painted furniture, American and European folk art, fraktur illustrations and antique embroidered samplers. I love the colours and motifs and find myself thinking about the lives of those who made these pieces of the past.

Here at Old Crow Farm, I feature my original designs and I also enjoy hooking a limited number of reproductions. My work can be seen and purchased directly from me or at the following locations:
.......................................

Vermont Hand Crafters Holiday Show, Sheraton Hotel, Burlington Vermont in November
Green Mountain Rug Hooking Guild's Rug Show, Shelburne Museum, Vermont in November
Grand Isle Artworks, Grand Isle, Vermont
Northeast Kingdom Artisans Guild Gallery, St Johnsbury, Vermont

.......................................

Most of my designs use wide-cut (#5 to #8 cut) wool strips and are hooked in the folk art style.


IF you can visit the new Grand Isle Art Works gallery please do so! There are always special works for sale as well as the Gallery's many other offerings. I have Hooked rugs and chairpads, as well as Santas and Father Christmas figures in the gallery.

My own original patterns are for a one-time use and the patterns may not be copied. However, permission is given for you to sell the finished rug as long as copyright laws are respected and proper credit is given to Sunnie and Old Crow Farm for the design.
