Making Rag Rugs

I've been making rag rugs lately. There fun and inexpensive to make. Earl and I have been going to thrift stores and buying old sheets. I bring them home, wash and dry them, make slits in the fabric and then we rip the sheets into strips for me to crochet. Earl and the kids have been a huge help with the ripping of the sheets.

Ezie and Mallory are helping with their own technique of ripping.

I guess you have to make it fun!

and hey, whatever works and they're getting along is fine with me!

and here are some of my end results....

I think they're turning out really pretty! It's been a fun way to be creative and recycle, reuse and go green!
