Thanks for the link - never saw this before. Looks like a great project for road trips.

I agree this is prefect for road trips. the mesh keeps the project in shape. You only need the 1 1/2 inch strips so you can just stick them in a bag. I also sewed a bunch of strips together and then cut into stips..Yah...works great. You can sew all instead of cutting the holes and slipping them though to make the strips longer. I did both and both look the same.

If you get into doing bigger rugs or what to use burlap you will want to use a frame. My mom had a rug hooking frame that she no longer uses. I went to Lowes and bought carpet gripers - 3 long pieces of wood with nails sticking out of it...then I bought velcro strips and for under 10.00 it made the perfect locker hooking frame. I just place my rug onto the frame. No clips or rolling. It works great and holds my piece nice and tight. [ATTACH=CONFIG]365050[/ATTACH]

Here is another one I completed...I have so many 1 inch scraps...this is wonderful!
