Green Apple and Licorice Penny Rug...
This is a contemporary twist on an old time favorite.
I have cut the pennies by hand and applied them with a Blanket Stitch
on a Fine Black wool background.
on a Fine Black wool background.
The base is a Midnight Houndstooth wool.
I have finished the Penny Rug with a Pulled Thread edge.
oh I like the colors!
ReplyDeleteThe green with the black is amazing! I love it!
ReplyDeleteCute. I like the way the black checked fabric pennies look like they are random, not in a set pattern. Color choice is fun and creative.
ReplyDeleteLove the colors! So cheery!
ReplyDeleteOh, I really like that...love the color combination!
ReplyDeleteI've noticed that you matched the appliqué thread to the color of the wool. Should I also match the colors of my wool for a traditional penny rug/mat? What weight of thread do you use?
ReplyDeleteVery nice! I like your applique a lot!
