Walk The Line
My kitchen floors got roughly novel clothes! The side of the isle that the sink is on is wider than the side that the fridge is on, together with hence I convey a difficult fourth dimension finding rugs for this spot. One that fits perfectly on the smaller side looks dinky on the other side, or a carpet for the large side is also large for the smaller side. (I similar to convey a carpet at the sink together with at the refrigerator.)
I've been looking for something novel for this spot for a while. Just equally a reminder, this is what I had before. I liked the size, but wasn't crazy close the to a greater extent than traditional await amongst my novel curtains and breakfast nook.
So, walking through Marshall's the other day, these jumped into my cart! Not long afterwards I saw that John & Sherry had tried i out, too, but they went roughly other direction. I loved them for my space, though!

I brought them dwelling solid to travail them on for size. Good, but soundless a niggling small.
The entirely other selection inward the shop was a narrower, longer runner, but I wanted to popular off on the width of these. They did, however, convey i to a greater extent than matching rug, together with hence I decided to purpose the extra i to create a niggling carpet surgery!
I seat the rugs out to eyeball a skillful length to larn the most out of the extra rug.
Then, I cutting along the stripes, leaving close ¾ inch for a seam allowance. (I cutting the hemmed border off of the master copy rug, because the novel slice would already locomote hemmed on the end.) In hind sight, I in all likelihood should convey left a niggling more. These unravel terribly when cut.
One of the rugs wasn't just the same width equally another, together with hence I stretched together with pulled a niggling equally I sewed together with it came out ok. After stitching a take away seam to bring together the two, I went dorsum together with zig-zagged the edges to preclude unraveling.
After pressing the seams opened upwards together with laying the novel carpet flat, I couldn't fifty-fifty say where the seams are.
Can you?
I intend this worked together with hence good because of the striped designing where the seam could larn invisible. Now they're merely the correct size, together with amongst a carpet pad underneath are overnice together with secure inward place. My entirely employment similar a shot is trying to popular off on stains off of those dog-gone white stripes! Why create spills ALWAYS province on the white...never the black?
Say a niggling prayer for us...we're headed out for roughly almost-end-of-summer-fun today at a local entertainment park. With highs of 113 degrees forecasted. #yeswearecrazy
