WHAT SIZE RUG DO I MAKE?
If you have thought what size of rug do you want to make, well you are not alone.  So often patterns are only 1 standard size, hmmmm, do I want it bigger? maybe to be a statement in a family room, entrance or dining room well...........I was reading a blog on Martina Lesar's website click here to view martina lesar website then click on her blog where she states to make a  pattern larger pick one that can be repeated.  She has a beautiful example of how this was done!
