It's finished!
Then it was time to do the binding. I over dyed 1 yard of wool. Cut my bias strips 3 inches wide and these 2 triangles are the left overs from 1 yard of wool. That's cutting it pretty close. (maybe a little to close for peace of mind). LOL
rug size 8x10

Hi Monika, So are you saying you bound your rug with wool strips? Would you very much mind explain ing how you did this please? And Thank you for sharing your beautiful work!!!!
Just gorgeous!!!!
I am so glad you posted your link for your blog on FB I kept telling my husband about you steaming this giant rug. Then this morning to get to see it on your floor all bound. What a work of art. I love how it looks there on the wood floor. I love everything about this rug. Then I scrolled down and looked at all of your other project. You are such an artist.
I love the colors you chose.
So thank you and I am so glad I found your blog.

Jaw droppingly beautiful - what an ambitious project! A beautiful design and I can imagine it in your room - being the center of attention! Well done!
Thanks so much for the nice comments about the rug.
I will post about binding in the blog soon.
I still seek a peek at your gorgeously designed and crafted rug. I never tire of the beauty. Hugs in rugs, Karen
Hi, I have finished a 8×10 ft rug. The pattern is tosseled flowers by Sharon Smith. I was so thankful I goeamt it done before she passed away. Now I need to steam it and finish the edge. Does it tell on your blog what you did? I will send you a picture of it.
Hi Caryn, would love to see a picture.
How do you want to finish the edge on the rug? I use a wool fabric binding on mine. ( finished similar to a quilt binding)
Happy to help. Text 541-660-6401
