Spruce Ridge Studios Annual Open House and Tent Sale

There will be clearance-priced wool and rug hooking patterns and craft related products at reduced prices.
Also vintage, one of a kind, and antique treasures.  All sale items will be under the tent.  For your regular shopping needs, my studio will be open during the sale.  Visa, Master Card, and Discover accepted.
Please contact me for directions to my studio.
UPDATE:  The emphasis of this year's sale will be discount-priced bolt wool.  I am trying to reduce some of my wool inventory so you will find many of your old textured "friends" that haven't been around for a while, at wholesale prices!
