Hi Jayryunen

How nice to see some other beautiful rugs. You have some great ideas.
I remember when my Mom made the rugs, she had to cut the strips of wool and she did not use other materials.
After that, she combed the rug so that the top portion is unwound, and extremely soft.

My older sister did her rug for the living room, before she got married and her Fiance, today Husband, helped also.
The rug is the size of 12 fee x 9 feet and still in good shape, after 45 years....
I helped my Mom a little bit too, but I made mostly my needlepoint pictures. I include an example.
