Love the penny rug!You did a great job!It doesnt take much to have a trailor look like a bomb exploded.we just got our house about,well lets see almost four years now.we had three kids and hubby and I in a two bedroom for at least 11 years.what a fun time that was.most days it looked as if it was a toy store gone insane.lol.we have the three girls and I can still remeber having the kitchen cookin sets(BIG sinks,stoves,etc)all lined against a living room wall.and of course a few toyboxes.past that stage now.Thank goodness.now I deal with whose bra is laying on the floor or whos earrings.OOOOhhh your going to have so much fun.enjoy it while there small ,it goes by super fast!have fun taking your decorations down .blessings michelle
ReplyDeleteHi Geesha & little girl!
ReplyDeleteOH, just am so excited for ya the penny rug is wonderful, great job!
Elly & Jed, MMMm wonder where you got the name at for them blood hounds? They are too too cute!
Answer to question: The blanket is a Weaver! I am not sure if you would call it red or burgandy? I would call it a dark red( any time ask away I don't mind)!
Enjoy Sunday!

Hey Geesha you go girl. I love your Beverly Hillbillies. There is a lady about 1/2 mi from me that does bloodhound rescue. I see them in the fence when I go by and they are precious.

Yay! LOL! I'm so glad you got it! Your stitches look good and even too. That's probably the hardest part of it, once you learn that blanket stitch.
