These are great! Now I just need to know who can print one onto an actual rug.

When I met my then future ex wife #2 in New Jersey, she was the VP at a textile dye plant that did what you are asking for, but they did not use computers.

I can ask her to see if she is willing to call them and see if they use computers to desgin and print patterns with colors on fabrics, including rugs.

The old way they needed to run the fabric multiple times for each color. But we're talking 1980's and possibly earlier technology.

I'll let you know.
