So glad you were able to post this pictures.  Looks like a very nice rug.

Your color choice is excellent, and I see you weave on a Glimakra, so that helps explain your passion for rep. I image this weaves up like butter on that loom! 

I hope you will continue to post more photos of your projects!

Thank you, Sally. Color is a very big deal for me. I love lining up cones of warp, arranging and rearranging them until the combination seems just right. Then when I warp, changes to my original idea sometimes happen. When a rug comes off my loom and hits the floor it can seem as if I'm seeing it for the first time. Weaving is an adventure through and through!

Notes

With this rep rug warp I intend to accomplish a number of goals:

Reduce my rag stash - use up odds and ends.

Experiment with stripes and various colorways.

Play with asymmetric design.

Pave the way for a future project using previously painted warps.
