The Helpers

They are: Mujeres en Cambio: the group that started us, money for the store and more, Bonifacia Tovar: organizer or the group, Judy Christoffersen: fund raising and general "do-it-all", Becky Rhode: fund raising and sewing machines plus lessons, Gene Shepherd: on line instruction, lessons and invitation to show at ATHA, Jinny Roddewig: best rug hook camp sales person, Hipolito: remodeling of the store, Isabel Carzares: book keeping, Florentino: iron work on the store, Kate Keily: our main source of wool donations, Gaby Negrete: Secretary, Shirley and Jim Schwantz: wool haulers and sales twice a year at the Clutter shows, Rebecca Brooks: raffel and brainstormer for fund raising, Laura Ramirez: secretary and my email connection when in the states, Barbara Hanson: creator of shows in the US and SMA, Jessica Hanson: English teacher, Susan White: brought first rugs to the USA: Wolf Sittler: my husband, you name it, he does it, Charlotte Bell: whatever needs to be done next. 

I would like to ask all you rug hookers, or any one else for that matter, to please consider sponsoring a show of rugs at your next event. We lost one major show this spring and we really depend on hooking camps for our sales. It's fun and easy. Just email me for details. 512 447 2150.
