Rug Reveal

Eight entire bed sheets and countless hours later, my colorful rag rug is finished!

~*~

She measures 35 by 42 inches.

She's reversible!

And, she'll grace the shelves in sosorosey later today!

Makeover Monday: 10/3

It's been a loooong time since I started a big crochet project just for the heck of it.  Poking around in my stash, though, I found all these sheets that were just too pretty to sit around waiting for "someday".

~*~

After I got started, I realized I needed more fabric... so I added these two lovelies to the mix.

~*~

Voila!  This fun rug is about halfway finished.  It should measure about 3 feet by 4 feet when it is all said and done.  I'm looking forward to seeing her all laid out for a photo shoot in a week or so :)

Welcome to a new week!  I got my flu shot and a TB test today.  I need the TB test because I am going through the rehiring process with my old school system.  Not back to teaching, but working for human resources as a collaborator for teachers who are in need of support.  The hours are flexible and the pay is good, so woohoo!  Other than that, this week I have a coffee date with another mom and I am volunteering at Sophie's school for the kindergarten hearing and vision screenings.  What are your big plans for the near future?  If you haven't already done it, don't forget to leave your comment for the Price is Right game (see post below)!   



Shabby Blue and Cream Rug: Check!

Ms. Blueberries and Cream is finished and ready to head on over to West Virginia!

She and her matching bowl look so sweet together!

Care to guess how much the rug and bowl weigh together? Leave a comment with your best estimate! Clicking on either photo will bring you to the listing page if you'd like more details about sizes before making your guess. I'll be back later to give the correct answer... right now I'm off to find a BIG box.

Makeover Monday: 12/7

I started out with a big stack of fabrics in greens and blues...
~*~

...and I'm halfway finished with this *ocean wave* inspired rectangular rug.

The colors are balanced, yet uneven. This lends a less structured, more freeform look to the overall rug versus a strict striping effect. I have promised to have this completed by 12/15- I'll post finished photos then!
