Day 44---twists are done

If you have been following my blog ---I did it!  On day 44 of starting New England twist I said I would do a twist a day for 45 days and the twists would all be done---some days came and went without a twist but i made up for it on other days and on day 44, one day early, this is what my rug looked like!

  Wools that I used---excluding the teals




Getting ready to repaint my first floor rooms---rather having someone paint  for me---this rug will look perfect with my new paint colors---just so hard to narrow it down,  I googled paint colors to complement golden oak cabinets and trim---they run all through the house and I am just not ready to have then painted---so these are some of the colors recommended to update golden oak.  

Back to  work getting ready for some upcoming workshops.

  2. Thanks for all the nice complements---I have had fun working on it---sometimes doing a repetitive pattern is a good thing and since I was trying to k=make it random I didn't have to over think it---sometimes simple is good!!!

  4. Oh and the only complicated part about it was redrawing each twist slightly to help make sure that 10 rows were going to fit---occasionally adding a 9 cut instead of an 8.5
