This is another work in progress that is finished.  It has been in progress for so long because it is a bit hard to work on a wool rug when it is over 100 degrees Fahrenheit outside.  I may felt it but I have not decided.  I know that when the nights were in the 20's here, i was very glad it was on the floor.  It did not cover a lot of area but it did help.  It did not turn out the way I was thinking it would because I screwed up the color pattern.  That is okay.  It works.

I actually am going to try to make an area rug out of t-shirts next.  I still have to dye the t-shirts and then cut them up.  I was thinking it might be a tad more washable with a vomiting Small Mister.  He has a very good gag reflex.  I also like the idea of reuse.
