This is scary, exciting and sad too. It’s really bittersweet…. But an opportunity has come up that we cannot ignore. The last few years have been extremely hard with dad’s health, Covid, hurricane Ian and then hurricane Helene and hurricane Milton. Helene and Milton kind of made us realize we cannot continue to live and work under the threat of losing everything 2-3 months of the year. We were extremely fortunate that the shop was not affected with any of those storms, but it’s a VERY stressful risk.... The thought of leaving all our dear customers and friends there in Florida is the hardest part of this. But we need to make the hard choice on what’s best for all of us and the business. Being near family and in a location that allows us to own our shop property only makes good sense. 

The Florida location has closed.
We are now in Irmo, SC
1751 Kennerly Road, Irmo sc. 29063
WE ARE OPEN 10-4 THURSDAY, FRIDAY AND SATURDAY

Remember our garden parties and fun events in Maine? Well look for them to start up again! Since we stopped traveling to shows a few years ago, we have been able to focus on local fun things, and we will continue this now that we are settled in SC. We think you will love the new location as much as we do and we know our vision for it will excite you as much as it does us. This is our second move as a rug hooking business…. Everyone had their doubts about us doing wool in Florida lol but we hoped for the 
“if you build it they will come…”
to be true… boy was it! You guys came in droves and helped us create a destination way beyond our wildest dreams.
We hope you follow us on our next adventure and maybe it will be a little easier for you to come visit us there! 

 Below is the new home of
Searsport Rug Hooking located in Irmo, SC.
We look forward to this next chapter in our life story and hope you can join us there soon!
