Braided (plaited) rugs are a very useful way of recycling old fabrics and are easy to make. The rugs below have taken me between three weeks and six months to make. Items made in a smoke free home.

 August 2009 - Braided Rug rug #1 ( small)

This was my first braided rug, which took me about six weeks to make. It is made from all cotton fabric, leftover from making shoulder bags and curtains. Because the rugs are braided, they can be turned over for even wear and because it is made from cotton can be washed.

 

 

January 2010 - Braided Rug #2 ( medium)

This rug size is approx .......... and took me about three weeks to make, I used up some wool, linen and cotton fabrics left from making two previous rag quilts, so this will be a very hard wearing rug.

March 2010 - braided rug # 4 ( medium)

This rug I made by recycling some old threadbare flannelette pillowcases. I used five altogether, to make this soft rug specially for our two cats. The pastel colours work really well together.
