Well it seems that Miss Linda has organized another blogger project.
This time the participants will paint a rug.
I am a DIYer from way back but painting rugs is new to me. I am pretty sure that I just signed up to ruin a perfectly good floor covering.
I am using the term "perfectly good" rather loosely. I have a seagrass rug that my daughter calls a "porcupine" and its has binding that is my least favorite color green.
I plan on painting the binding too. Everything else is still up in the air. I had an idea and bought the paint and fabric medium.
Then I changed my mind.
I might not even use these colors.
Also, I should dispell any notion that I am going to do a "painting" on this rug. It will be a design that is appropriate for a rug. If you do see my finished product as an abstract, you will know I used it to cover up a mistake.
Check out what the others are doing.

I love that your daughter calls the rug "the porcupine" sounds like my girl complaining about the scratchy wool! This will be fun....
Can't wait to see what you do. Although I think the "painting" idea is pretty cool.
sounds like fun! Looking forward to your updates..I think you should do an abstract on your rug! Is this for Helen's room? good luck!

I was curious whether you would do an abstract. I actually thought of trying an abstract myself and it would be unique - I did not find any abstract versions online. Can't wait to see what you do whatever it is.
Get out! I am really looking forward to an abstract rug. This will be great, and probably lead to a new line for you to sell.
Love your idea of a painting! Will be following....
Ha! Love that you changed your mind about the colors already, I'm going to fit in with the group well! An abstract would be SO amazing, good luck!
Kerry, you're so funny! Your rug will be great! Can't wait to see it and I'm not expecting an abstract : )

"I am pretty sure that I just signed up to ruin a perfectly good floor covering" made me laugh out loud! I'm sure it'll turn out great - I can't wait to see it!
I can't wait to see what you'll do. This is going to be good I know!
I think the abstract would look really cool! Can't wait to see how it turns out.
Great ideas! HA! Porcupine rug is exactly how I feel about seagrass!
