I love the others yes of course but it is getting so the others are just indulging in to much for my thoughts always talking on something, via the outside. Nothing inside the forum so here I will stay.where there is less chatter. Now we have top carry on huh I do not have pretty pictures like most so all I have are some

Also have him fix the resolutions so you can fine tune the print everywhere to where it is best for you and you don't have to change it all the time. I did that to mine at work. Made all printing bolder and bigger. Love it.

Using clothing and other excess materials to make a floor covering that would provide warmth and protection for a particular home's inhabitants and guests.

Braided area rugs can be constructed in a variety of different ways including a banded braid construction, cloth braid construction, flat braid construction and yarn braid construction. Banded braid constructions boast wide bands of either solid colored or variegated braids made from predetermined patterns to offer an appealing, thick look. A cloth braid construction is indicative of a time when outgrown clothing was cut into strips and then hand braided into a floor covering. This particular construction is unique to one manufacturer, Thorndike Mills. A flat braid construction is a common construction as it's one of the easier and more classic methods. Simply intertwine three ropes of fabric and/or yarn, and you'll have yourself a braided rug. A yarn braid construction evolves from yarn in its initial state to a uniquely finished area rug.

Braiding is an extremely old yet versatile technique that has been modernized over recent decades to display its appeal and charm.

Ps I remember these well ( some very pretty)and they did add warmth to the rooms. Especially when the only heat we had was wood, fire in the stove ..the piepes going upm through the bbedrooms on the old beautiful farmhouse of my Grandparents,
