We did a nice short scalloped leather border, carpet back and hangers so the rug would remain nice and flat on the wall.      Mary's Rugmaking Phoenix, Arizona halflingrugger@cox.net Taxidermist/Rugmaker | ||

I love rugs, and your backing makes wall hanging a cinch. Very nice Mary!

Thanks Mary, you did a great job showing off my Leopard rug. A lot better than I could have done, since it is hanging on the wall in my trophy room. Will Parks/Safari Lawyer, hats off to Mary again and hope you enjoy?? Larry Sellers | |||

Very nice. For myself I could never do that to a Leopard. I would need a life size mount but it definitely shows it off like that. | |||

What if a person already has a Leopard lifesize mount/s, would it be OK then?  What if one does not have the room for a lifesize mount? What if one does not want to spend the extra dollars for a lifesize mount? What if one just likes wildlife rugs? Could go on and on, but to each his own I guess?  Larry Sellers SCI Life Member

Larry, I am just making a comment regarding myself. The rug is awesome. I would send my rug work that way in a second. I should have clarified that I don't have a leopard and don't know that I ever will and therfore I would not do a rug. Rugs don't get any better than that. | |||

LJ - Thanks for the compliment. I thought the grin and wink would show that my comments were tongue in cheek. Sorry, really wasn't ragging on you. Larry Sellers

Beautiful rug and, I think, a more historical way of showing off a leopard, since previous generations did this a lot more with their trophies than any full mounts. I'm going to consider this once my short (only 2 attempts) leopard curse is over. | |||

I like rugs. If I get a leopard it's probably the way that I'll go. I couldn't figure out how to do it with my buffalo though so I had a shoulder mount done.

Mary, that is BEAUTIFUL!!! Well done! Improving the Quality and Status of Taxidermy Since 1970. | |||

Absolutely. There is definitely.some understated panache in a leopard rug not found in a full mount. That would be my choice as well! | |||

Really nice! | |||

That is beautiful. In fact, that rug has a more natural, life-like look to it than a lot of the full-size mounts that I've seen! | |||
