Large Modern Flowers: A Punchneedle Rug

I finally drank the punch and took the plunge!

After a fantastic what-to-get-and-how-to-do-it post about punch needle from Brae, I ordered everything I needed, and impatiently awaited it's arrival.

I chose to do this rug:

And I think it will find a home in the teenager room in my Undersized Urbanite house.
I've had the supplies for about 2 weeks now and have managed to put in about 8 hours of work.

And here's where we are with it as of tonight!

  1. It is looking fabulous Lyssa. I just love that design. I am still plucking up the courage to have a go at punch needle.

    1. Thanks! You should definitely try it. It's quite relaxing, actually...Once you figure out what you are doing, that is. When I first started it, I didn't have the needle set right, and it wouldn't stay on the other side like it was supposed to.... I was just punching a bunch o' holes in my fabric! I certainly see more in my future, too. :)

  5. How brave! I have been mesmerised by Brae's rugs but don't have the courage to try it. I love your design, it's so colourful and happy. It looks fantastic so far. Looking forward to seeing it finished and in a scene.
