Rugs for Rescue

Another pop up market; 8 rugs sold and $215 to the Javelin Project, a group that provides service dogs to disabled vets and retired First Responders. All passions of mine. Such a great group of people and so much fun!

I did this pop up market today and sold 9 rugs. Promise for Paws, Muddy Paws and Good Life Rescues each benefited All money went to local rescues for vet care

I wish I had more to say than just post pictures of rugs, but that’s my extent of “rescue” work at this point. As long as I have sheets, there will be rugs!

It always amazes me how beautiful (to me) a rug turns out. It’s been slow getting established with rescues in my new location, but I’m hopeful. All money earned from rug sales goes directly to a local rescue.

Just because I haven’t posted in a while doesnt mean I’m not producing rugs. Sold two this weekend and 5 before that.
Decided since everything else has gone up in price it was time to increase rug prices too. At $25/rug, that just means that much more for rescues. In the last two weeks rug money
(all $25/rug) has been sent to “Promise 4 Paws” in Council Bluffs, “All Points West GSP” in Denver and “Randy’s Rescue” in O’Fallon, IL.

What do you do with an orange sheet? Make a candy corn rug !

Update on Erie trip:
I was able to visit friends, check out the old homestead, hit the beach. But the main reason for the trip was to do Rugs for Rescue work. I left 45 rugs in PA; giving to my favorite rescues: Canine Partners Program Inc, Erie Animal Network, and ANNA Shelter.
I brought home sheets and the first thing I did upon return to Iowa was to start making more rugs. I’m sure my neighbors wonder why I have so many sheets hanging out to dry andwhat is making all the ripping noises.
Greta is an active participant in the whole process, even checking out the first rug to restock my inventory. Thank you Erie for being such great supporters.

Line up of oval rugs. Size about 20” x 30”. Only $20 and all $20 goes to local rescues for vet care.

Getting Rugs for Rescue rugs ready for Erie trip. Once I get back home I’ll have to start making rugs all over again.

Is blue Greta’s color? More rugs in the making in preparation for Erie trip in August. “Rugs for Rescue” returns to Canine Partners Program Inc big sale on the 17th.

My new rug partner. Greta thinks my sheet balls are her dog toys. She approves of my latest flannel rug.
BTW: I’ll be in Erie August 14-18, to visit friends and old stomping grounds, selling rugs at Canine Partners Program Inc annual sale on the 17th.

I needed someone in my life to love, who would love me back, unconditionally. Someone to be by my side through thick and thin. Someone to share adventures, tears and kisses. Someone who depends on me as much as I depend on them.
This afternoon I picked up my life partner from Dakota Dachshund Rescue. Meet Greta, formally known as Eve. We are immediate buddies. Can’t wait to see where life takes us.
