Halfway There

~*~
Remember THIS POST from waaaay back in October?  I'm embarrassed at how long ago my mom ordered this rug.  But, I'm back in the crocheting saddle and halfway there!
~*~
~*~
Current size is 30" wide and 36" long.  Heading toward six feet long- the largest rug I've made in a very long time.  And, the only rug I've made in this style so far. 
~*~
I'm going to spend the next 3 feet paying veeeeery close attention to exactly how much time is put into cutting fabric and crocheting this type of rug.  I want to have a strict formula to follow so that I can easily give price quotes when someone else wants this same type of rug. 
~*~
Mom, I'm publicly promising to have this finished by the end of February!  I can't wait to see how it looks in your hallway :)

Well glorey bee!!!! She certainly is a beauty! The fabric, as well as the colors, look fabulous together! Honey, her name, is exactly what I want! She will certainly look very elegant lying on my repurposed, warm, oakish color, polished wood floor! Thank You so much!!

PS...not to worry about any deadline....I can wait, knowing what I have to look forward to is most enjoyable!!

Jennie, I loved this rug then, and I love it now :o)

I think the stitches in this are awesome, they really blend well for upcycled crochet!
It's beautiful and looks kinda like a watercolour in the way each colour washes into the next! :o)

Lucky Mum! :o)

Our *snow* fell as *rain* :o(

Happy weekend Jennie.
xxOOxx
