I hope that your bathmat won't cause you to lose interest in the rug. They look great, I really like the blue, it makes it seem cheerful. But I really, really love that crochet chair. Where did you come across that?
ReplyDeleteLooks great Suz but don't know how you will make it non slip.
ReplyDeleteMake sure you tell us when you do, as I'm sure you will sort it.
I really admire your skill

lovely bath mat; it looks cozy on the toes! that chair is amazing!!!! are you going to make one?
ReplyDeletegreat idea! why not use fabric paint that has a shape to it (sorry I'm french and don't know the right word...) to make non slip.
ReplyDeleteLove it, and especially that it's chunky and quick! Would love it if you'd drop by my crafty international linky party and share some of your great projects!
