ACOR 7 rolled up the rugs last weekend after a spectacular display of Turkmen rugs from the Michael Rothberg collection, a spacious and busy Dealers Row, a Northwest Collections exhibit and more.

Here are some photos from Dealers Row, although it was more like a covered bazaar with a maze of dealers.

This booth was Bruce Froemming’s display of embroideries. He also presented a seminar on them.
