June 13, 2026 ~ Strawberry Festival
Festival is being held the week before to avoid conflicting with a Carlisle town-wide event on the 20 th.
Special Invitation and Show and Tell 2026-2027
As a reminder, we invite everyone to bring show and tell of recently completed rugs to each meeting, but we also have a special theme each month where people can bring older rugs that fit a theme. This way, new people can see rugs that they missed from the past, and others get second chance to see them!
- To be determined
This Years Challenge Rugs(stay tuned to next years challenge rug to be announced)
It was decided that this year, and potentially future years, our challenge theme will follow that of the Bedford Hook-in (formerly the Westford Hook-In) held in the early spring. Nancy Jewett organizes this hook-in each spring and before the hook-in is adjourned, a theme is selected for the following year. So, theme selected for 2025-2026 was “The Moon”. We have not gotten an official choice of the challenge rug as of yet for 2026-2027, so we will post once we know.
So, if you are interested in participating and If attending the hook-in, the suggested size was around (9″ x 9″). So, you can make it that size if attending and if not, make it any size you wish!
Our Programs for 2026-2027

So depending on what is decided, dates of the meetings may change. So assuming we continue to meet every 3rd saturday, these dates will still be used. Of course, If things change we will adjust accordingly. Thank you
