Rag Rugs & Saddle Blankets

RAG RUGS AND SADDLE BLANKETS

Last November I finished this rag rug for a baby's room.  I liked it so much that I decided to tie on another warp to the old warp and pulled it through the heddles onto the back beam.


I wove the saddle blanket below for a friend.  She thought it would be the perfect lightweight material to use under her western saddles and also because it is machine washable.  She is doing quality testing for me.


Below is the second smaller saddle blanket or rug.  It is 29 inches by 34 inches long.


After doing the saddle blankets there was enough warp left to do another twill rug.  I think I will give this one to Ana.
