Have you ever wanted to make your own durable, cozy and handmade rug? Here is an idea by a friend of mine who is handy with the needle. This rug is made from scrap fabric and you can use everything from faded t-shirts, old out-of-style clothing to curtains, linens, tops, ribbons and others.
Items you will need:
Fabric Scraps;
Squared paper;
Pencil;
Permanent marker pens in multiple colours;
Hessian (15 cm larger than your desired rug size);
Sharp Scissors;
Tape measure or ruler;
A Large needle;
Thick cotton cord;
A small latch hook;
For more instructions, follow the link below.

Carolyn Hoxton on Dec 08, 2014I think Fleece would be soft, but wonder how it would hold up? If you try it, let us know. I have crocheted rugs, but was wondering if there was another option.

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
What is Hessian. And the directions on making the rug. Thanks
Can you clarify the directions and use for the thick cotton cord, please? I'm not understanding what it is for, therefore, I do not understand how to do it.
I would love to make these......But where are the instructions???
