The Monster Rug

After months of working on this rug for my mom's hallway, I finally finished it, or so I thought. The colors are beautiful, and the rug is so long. Funny enough, after sewing on the non-stick backing so the rug doesn't kill anyone, i happily rolled it out in my mom's hallway, and......... it's too short, and could be wider. So my proud finished pictures turned out to be more of "progress" pictures. Anyway, I'll take more pictures when I finish the rug.... for real! *laughing to self*

Finished Braided Rug


The monster rug is finally finished. YAY! This rug came out to be 79" long, taller than me. But get this, I've decided to take on an even bigger rug. I am starting a braided rug/runner for my mom's very large hallway, and making the rug a ginormous 15', yes that's 1-5 feet long, a little under 3 of me. I started that rug last night and it was just ridiculous how long it is going to be. I finished my first strand, and thought that I had to be close to 13' (my starting distance, because it will just get wider and longer as I go), the strand was long. Nope, it measured at 7'. Wow, am I really rambling on and on about a rug... uh, I'm going to get to work now. =)
