The Rag Rug Project is one I started on 04/09/13 and it is supposed to go under our dining room table. This is no small undertaking as I intend to make this rug a 7' x 7'square. I will accomplish this by making smaller rugs and sewing them together. I have never made a rag rug by crocheting fabric, come to think of it, I've never made a rag rug period. I remember my mother braiding rags and then sewing the braid into an oval rug, but the crocheting method fascinates me, so I thought I'd give it a go. I'm using all manner of fabric weights and the colors I've been using are the colors within my home decor, mostly yellows, greens, reds, and browns. This has been challenging because each weight of fabric must be cut at different widths to keep the work uniform. So far I have crocheted a piece that is about 30" x 24", so I have a long way to go!
Hello dear reader,I will be sharing all of my crocheting projects with you on this page, unfortunately I have a bad track record with finishing what I start, so I hope that by sharing my projects with you will and by dating them, this will help to keep me motivated to complete my projects. I hope! ArchivesCategories |
