Finished!

"Guardians of the Orchard" is done at last!
I finished the edges simply.
I folded it under and stitched it to the back,
 no cording and
no binding tape.
Naughty naughty but that’s the way I wanted it.

 
I see it's a bit shadowy on the left. 
Not how it really looks.
This rug will be beside my bed, 
perfect for warming my tootsies from the cold hardwood floors.
We are due 6 inches of snow tomorrow.
The positive thing is the sun- it has the extra warmth and strength of coming Spring.
I’m trying to frame things more positively these days as I’m perimenopausal.
Tears and anxieties seem constant. 
There must be an awful chemical mess in the old brain.
Anyone else out there dealing or dealt with this?

Love your rug!
Well, I am way beyond peri menopausal but for me me the hot flashes never end. 17 years and still going strong. Ugh!
Hopefully your snow won't stick around for long.

Like Lauren, I'm way beyond those menopausal feelings too. Today I'm so cold wish I would have a hot flash.

Your rug is delightful and totally understand photos not correctly capturing the true colors of the rugs.

I just want Spring to get here soon. Your rug looks awesome! BTW you can finish it any dang way you like! It will be perfect as a bedside rug. Janice

Great rug and I do not think it is naughty at all to finish a rug like that at all. I am over whipping.
I hope spring finds you soon
