Feeding my need to dabble in artsy stuff, I have been exploring the world of fiber arts for the last several years. Here are some of my more recent creations, rag rugs. I am a new weaver and learning fast.
 |
My first little rug attempt. It's a denim rug from old jeans. I learned a lot doing this one. |
 |
I like this rug much better. My warp spacing was much improved and I like the warp striping. I made this one from old sheets. |
 |
Made on my newly acquired Cranbrook countermarche loom. Much easier to make a rug on this loom. This one was for the family room. We had to rip up the carpet and have cement floors right now. This rug was made from old T-shirts (cotton knit) |
 |
And a matching pillow. I like this. |
 |
A boot rug for my daughter. There were a couple of mis-threadings in the warp, visible here. |
 |
I like this rug. Especially the color. Made from old sheets. |
 |
This rug is also from old sheets. Tom picks them up at garage sales for me. I did this one with doubled strips so it is thicker. |
