August To Remember by Pat Finlayson

"August To Remember" was  held in Tualatin, OR on Saturday, August 26th at the Juanita Poll Senior Center.

We have so many people to thank for continuing this great day of fun, now in it's 4th year.  The Portland Group provided 75 rug hookers a memorable day all around.  "When it's time to do stuff, everyone pitches in" was heard from one of the gals from the Portland group.

Handmade table decorations and name tags, as well as 31 raffle baskets, a delicious luncheon and a dessert buffet, all contributed by loving hands.  As always, we had multiple vendors present with an array of hand dyed wool patterns and other supplies to make our next rug the best one yet.  Over 35 pieces of fiber art were displayed from our Northwest rug hookers and they were truly inspiring.  It was a fun filled day for all.
