Notes: 

I put this ambitious warp on the loom about 2 years ago, 15 yards. I had in mind to do several rag rugs: denim, rags, and pendleton wool worms. I cut the denim strips way to wide, about 1 1/4", and beating this has not been fun. It languished for over a year, and I finally finished the first rug!  I have decided to change the project a bit, and will be rethreading and resleying between rugs for different structures. Next in line: Summer and Winter.

I like your warp stripes in

I like your warp stripes in this rug...   I get stuck doing the matchy matchy thing and centering and balancing with my warp details when I do them.  I may have to try to make myself do something like this!
