We decided to take a break from felting and start doing some rag rugging. This is an addictive craft, once you start it's hard to stop. I was re-introduced to the wonders of rag rugging by Megan Dowsett via the Urban Craft Club which is run by Rowan Arts.
So on a sunny June day I descended with my trolley full of fabric, scraps that I have collected over the last six years, and we started. Everyone else brought along some other fabric to share around. You will never want to give away or throw out any clothes ever again.
The tools we used are called a hooky - pictured above and a proddy in the picture below.
It took no-time at all before everyone got the hang of how to make a rag rug, now every bit of fabric has the potential to be turned into something else!
