2010 Saskatchewan Stitches Conference
Doris Fulmore
A certified rug-hooking teacher from Regina, Saskatchewan, Doris has had a life-long love with fibre arts: sewing, stitching, crocheting and knitting. Fifteen years ago she became “hooked” by traditional rug hooking and its many facets, and it has been the main focus of her artistic expression.
She loves to teach and share her knowledge and understanding of the craft. She received her teacher’s certificate from Nova Scotia in 1999 and from Ontario in 2003.
