My latest project
« on: April 28, 2013, 04:33:44 pm »
I have just finished my first rag rug using old t-shirts.  There are loads of t-shirts in it and as a consequence the rug is very heavy.
The picture doesn't do it justice because the flash was on and it looks a bit washed out. In reality its even brighter than is shown and I am really pleased with it.

I've really been missing pics of people's projects recently.  That's a real stunner Sally  :excited:  and so well done, all even and well packed together.

I really enjoyed doing it. I might make a cushion cover next but will have to go to the charity shops for some more t-shirts  ;D

that looks great!  :thumbsup:

I've nearly finished a shaggy rag rug I'm making for my daughter. It will be made up of 6 squares with a heart in each. Pink background and white/pale pink hearts. I have used all she old baby clothes that I kept and it is lovely and soft. Only trouble is I need a bit more pink to finish it off so I'm just waiting for my girls to grow out of some stuff!

Clarebelle, your rug sounds lovely and such a nice idea to use their old baby clothes. Don't forget to post a picture when you have finished it.
