 At long last my Denise rug is completed! There are over 66,000 stitches in this little rug. I decided to try a new style (new to me) of edging instead of using my usual overcast stitch. I tried using a "braid" style stitch which is best described in this YouTube video. I really enjoyed trying out this stitch and once I got the hang of it, it went very smoothly. I like the square instead of rounded profile I got with this stitch and am very pleased with the results. Unfortunately, I couldn't get a good picture of the edge due to the black floss. Sometime when I finish another project with a lighter color I will try to get a good photo of it.
This is the first of my stitched rugs that I will be offering for sale in my Etsy shop and can be found HERE if interested. Over time I may offer other stitched items as I make them but for now, this one has the honor of being my first!
