I sweep their pen and throw straw, hay and cracked corn down. They don't mind walking on the straw and hay and actually eat some of the hay.dogladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08240144182898707334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4211585144707526222.post-20689483948161931112011-01-28T12:27:00.363-05:002011-01-28T12:27:00.363-05:00Love your rug!

I think more dislike this part than enjoy it.<br />Now for a solution - take it down front and trade your neighbor - eggs for binding - you know she'll do it for nothing though ;)CountryFunMainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05063504672889607214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4211585144707526222.post-85221775105607135332011-01-28T11:03:20.775-05:002011-01-28T11:03:20.775-05:00I would love to tast your chickens eggs.

They must be so yummy. <br />binding a rug is a drag and I think I may do it diffrent than anyone else because I just can't figure out what others are doing. Did you whip the rug? I rarely whip I hate the process. but when I do I do not put any twill binding tape or wool on it. I put the cord and roll the backing around the cord. then whip, I have no raw edges showing. When I put on the twill binding I do it before I start hooking as the rug gets to heavy to handle to put it on at the end. I was taught by a older lady and she didn't like the whipping so I think I that is where my opinion of whipping comes from. I do love your piece though a great job.<br />Cathyacorn hollowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10503414190541111706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4211585144707526222.post-30559144428642516382011-01-28T10:53:33.194-05:002011-01-28T10:53:33.194-05:00Drinking hot chocolate and rug hooking sounds like...Drinking hot chocolate and rug hooking sounds like the perfect way to spend a snowy winter's day.
