I sometimes get inquiries about how to purchase my hooked rugs and chairpads that I feature here and on my other Old Crow Farm Blog…and I am asked why I don’t post prices, etc.
Since I am an individual folk artist creating mostly original, one-of-a-kind work, I don’t have a group of rugs or chairpads of one design for sale.
On these Blogs, I am teaching, discussing rug hooking and showing you all the type of work I do and why I do it…if you are interested!!! : )
The pieces are often sold already as special orders or are being done for my November show (Vermont Hand Crafters Holiday show), for the Northeast Kingdom Artisans Guild Gallery in St Johnsbury Vermont or for Art Quest West in Idaho.
I am very happy to discuss a special order with you or to let you know if I have a rug or chairpad at home that you might be interested in. My chairpad prices range from $75.00 – $95.00 depending upon the design and if I am using a lot of hand-dyed wools (which are more expensive), etc.
My hooked rug prices usually range from $395.00 – $1200.00, again depending upon size, design and wools used. (A rug the size of the “Homeplace Primitive” (3 feet x 5 feet) would run $2000.00 and over and would only be done on commission as it was designed and hooked especially for the customer and will never be made again.
If you have a special request for a rug or chairpad…I’m very happy to discuss it with you! : )
Also, I do offer some of my smaller pieces as patterns, but since I do primarily one-of-a-kind work, I am not really the best source for patterns. There are some delightful people out there designing hooked rug patterns and you can “Google” them to find them!!
I hope this answers the questions I’ve received!
You might enjoy seeing the sign I’m hooking for my booth!! It is great fun and keeps the “funny” rug theme I’ve been hooking lately (along with my usual hooked pieces, of course!!!) LOL
Happy Hooking! Sunnie ; )
