Over the years I have been experimenting with different types of yarns and other fiber products. Here are the latest results of dyeing off - white cotton chenille yarn. I am most happy with the latest outcome of the dyeing process and how beautifully it took the dye and punched needled.
Used one of my original bear patterns ( once again) and transferred it onto 100 percent cotton monks cloth. I think the photo's below will show what a awesome child's rug it made. This rug measure about 27 inches by 40 inches. I have also made some smaller rugs as well and all are wonderfully soft, as well as thick and fluffy. I might add washed up beautifully.
Enjoy and until then
Have a Magic Day.

what a big project...the colors are gorgeous!!!
I really like how the yarn came out and the bear rug, that is so fun. I love the idea of punching yarn, but need to figure out a frame so I can do larger rugs for the house.
