Yeah, I don't have enough old clothes for a rug that big!Thank you again, though the glory is not mine
Funny you should mention that because I’ve been wanting make one as well. I think they’re absolutely beautiful. From what I’ve seen online, you can stitch shorter bits together to make longer ones before braiding. The Anabaptist family I stayed with as a child had ragrugs… one must’ve been 12 feet long and at least 8 feet wide… Now, I’m thinking “that’s a lot of leftover clothes!!” Lol![]()
Some ladies buy new fabric for this, I guess to control the look of the finished product more. That defeats the purpose of a rag rug though, which is to use material from garments and sheets that are no longer usable for their original purpose.
