Day 253: My rug strip box was filled and overflowing into two large bags, so I figured it was time to make another batch of rag rugs, but I was desperately short of bright colours, particularly greens. I put out an all-points call, and friends came through. Suddenly, I found myself with an abundance of greens, and since it just happens to be my favourite colour, I decided to make the last of three rugs for myself. I'd already used some of the greens in the first two and thought I might run short if I stuck exclusively to green, so I threw in some brights to liven up the random design. Now I find myself short of greens again, and I'm still up to my eyeballs in grey, black and red. It's feast or famine, and I've just measured off a new warp (with Merry's help) for three more rugs.
