Wool Blanket Rug

I'm always trying to come up with new ideas for upcycling the stash of donated wool blankets that have been piling up in my supply room.    Instead of making small items with all of them, I thought it would be fun to make a rug!  This little cutie would be sweet in a nursery or little girl's bedroom, and feels soft and warm underfoot.

The rug is made with two layers of heavy wool blanket; pieces have been attached with blanket stitch; and embellished with machine stitched circles.  It is a good weight, but I would recommend it be used with a non-slip underlay.  Easy care - just wash in cold water, and hang to dry.
