TRUE CONFESSIONS

Gee, I can remember seeing a magazine by that name on the rack when a teen.  Never purchased or read one....wonder if it still exists?  But this isn't about a magazine, it is about my finally bound rug "Star Geometric".

As a reminder, I posted a photo on hating to bind as to how I would bind this rug.  Click that link above for a review.

Here is the front of the finally bound Star Geo.
Below is the back of the rug.  After whipping the bottom edge (which only shows under the rug) I was bored silly and changed horses mid stream.  Decided it would get bound a lot faster if I just did the very outer edge of the cotton rug tape and edge of foundation with the wool yarn.  

Yes two different styles of binding but I'm not entering a contest or qualifying for a magazine (unless it was True Confessions), and the rug will live with me.
This is a photo of the original antique from which this was adapted.  I drew my pattern to measure 29 x 32.5.
Enjoy your weekend.
