Your work is some of my favorite....just this morning I was trying to use the lace centerpiece stencils I bought at IDAL, but it wasn't the look needed for this job.

"I don't get it, who would want a floorcloth?" <br />"Me" I said and now thanks to you and the Daily Basics I have loads of fabulous images to defend myself with. Floorcloths are wonderful. I can't send you the picture destined for the book (til after it's published) but I made a sweet one last month. Shall I send you a photo?<br />PS.

I'm crazy for them...dying to walk on one barefoot...an added sensual pleasure, I'm sure. I love the puzzle aspect of mosaic...I would become obsessed. And millifiore, too. You just want to eat it up.

They are sealed with shellacs and urethanes, Just like a painting, but more layers for foot traffic.I have one I made in the early 1980's and it is just like new. As far as price, you are paying for all that labor involved, but it is less than a woven rug of the same quality.Theresa Cheekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11429069123185290732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751627818853797065.post-37479299756142166262011-01-28T08:58:46.918-06:002011-01-28T08:58:46.918-06:00The mosaic is incredible closeup but simply specta...The mosaic is incredible closeup but simply spectacular when you see the full shot.

About two years ago through my animal rescue efforts I met a woman who painted floorcloths and I loved her work. Now that I am remodeling my master bedroom, I wanted to contact her to see about purchasing one. Unfortunately, I cannot find her contact information. I love the “rugs” you have showcased here. Especially the round rug by Gunderwood Studios and the mosaic by Sophie Sarin. Just gorgeous!<br /><br />~ TracyMs. Bake-ithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08788863782876226680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751627818853797065.post-13799465028334051912011-01-28T07:45:21.811-06:002011-01-28T07:45:21.811-06:00Oh my, the first hand painted rug of Gunderwood St...Oh my, the first hand painted rug of Gunderwood Studios really is fabulous. <br /><br />I read their bio...happy to know they have an Atlanta connection.
