Full of awesome, right?
Well, no, not actually. I mean yes but, no.
Yes, because I'm really happy with the way it looks.
No, because it's 44 inches wide and the downstairs bathroom, that needs a new rug, is 40 inches wide.
So.
Because it's fabulous looking, I will power on (That's right: power on. More on that later). Because it's the wrong size, it will not be a rug. I just don't see a way to cut it down either. I mean, I do but I don't like what I see, if you know what I mean.
Anyway, who could stand on that one eyed alien robot's face? It's too cute.

Because it's not a rug any more, I chose this backing (A remnant from IKEA) that I really love. It's in the wash now. I won't make the mistake of not pre-washing fabric before sewing with it. Again.
"Power On" because when I was whining to telling my teenage son about the pointlessness of a 44 X 44 inch blanket, he said it was obviously a Power Up Blanket used by superheros to power up before they save the city. Also that he was a superhero and had a side kick, who I'd never met, who was a piece of toast: Wonder Bread.
Power-up blanket. Side-Kick, Wonderbread!?! ROTFL Your son is AWESOME. I mean, obviously. That is what this was intended to be all along. :-P
ReplyDeleteI know. What killed me is that he had the answer right there. Like he was thinking it all along. :)
Deletelike your quilt! that Ikea fabric is so ugly that it's cool, I would definitely use it for backing if I could get my hand son some! ~(;@}
