This demonstration was so helpful for Xmas gifts with fall colors on the opposite side.
Thanks so much for this really cute and fun idea!
Love the video and the project. I was looking for something easy and quick to do for our church shut-ins as a thinking of you gift. Someone had donated some Christmas themed material so I think I will get some fall material and do the two sided seasonal theme mud rugs. Great idea and I think these elderly folks will enjoy them. Thanks for sharing. <3

Thank you very much!
