My goodness! Such nice folks out there! I am making a rag rug for my granddaughter's room. I started with an old queen flat sheet, cut into strips , 1/4" x 3") and pulled them thru a mesh mat used to prevent rug slippage. It is going great, but I did not heed the tutorial and have pulled thru every hole! instead of every other one! Big mistake! But she will be getting a VERY FLUFFY rug from Gramma! Thanks for all the replies!

You can pruchase a DVD at rag rugs by Laura on the web. Small fee but so many great tips and instructions. I refer back to my DVD often.
Cut your rags in narrow strips and braid. Attach braids by hand sewing to the rug as you add them.
