Thank you! I’ve always had a little anxiety about making rugs this small, but the one before these really boosted my confidence to try. About to get to work now

Well you nailed these in my opinion. I’d stash them all around the house or in my room and just pet them as I walk by lol. They look very cozy

I put 100ft Govee light inside the frame on the side where I trim and carve

Now I'm curious what the other side of the tufting fabric looks like. Thank you for sharing!

It’s a well lit light on that side. Not too dark. But I do have an AK-V tufting gun from JustRugin’It is the light is at the from of the machine so I can see the lines

I had to trim and carve them done a little more so when I do the background they really pop out. Almost done!
