AKKKK! I found myself screaming "Don't walk on it!" remember the clear plastic covers on the chairs/sofa that people would put on and never take off for centuries in order to protect the fabric? makes me want to lay it down on this beautiful scrappy. Seriously, it is so pretty and such a wonderful job you've done. I like the quilting you chose to do on it as well.Oh and thanks for the nightmare I will have tonight about me running around trying to keep people from walking on my quilts! LOL!

I know we don't like the idea of walking on quilts, but, on the other hand...
Look what great personality, color and warmth it adds to the room and tile floor!
It is scrappy, little $$ involved, and may fit the budget better than buying a rug.
It can be thrown into the washing machine. I can't do that with my large area rugs.
I wouldn't do this with a quilt I'd invested too much money or too many hours on, but a scrappy in an area that's not a main traffic area in my home...I think I'd consider it!

I hope you have scotch guarded it like crazy and don't allow anyone to have shoes on when they walk on it. I don't think after doing all that piecing I could put it on the floor! It is a very nice room though.
