Rug, 1st 100 Feet





I started out the other day making a coaster, then it was going to be a bowl and now I've decided it's going to be a small rug. I'm going to keep going until I run out of the three fabrics that I'm using. So here are some pictures of the first 100 feet of rope and it comes out to 18.25 inches of rug and growing. I really enjoy these projects because you can sit and mindlessly sew. The most time consuming part is the wrapping of the fabric on the rope. It seems to take forever to wrap a strip that is 45 inches long and then it takes probably 20 seconds and you're done sewing that strip. I like the colors and I'm hoping to get it somewhat bigger to either use by the front door or in the kitchen by the sink. Right now I figure I'll get another 100 feet on it if my fabric holds out.
