Rag rugs are great

Author Ange Sewell

I’ve managed to achieve my aim this week to get cracking on properly with the rag rugs on Vicky the floor loom.
There’s a not so great aspect to rag rugs, and that’s making the rags. I got a rotary cutter at the Creative Stitches Show in Glasgow earlier this month and I understand now why they’re such a useful tool. It did struggle a bit with going through the thicker of the 2 curtains that I am using but I got there in the end. The surprise was how much fuzz that cutting the curtains up would create. There was a thin layer of blue all over my dining table and me. Thank god for Dyson hoovers.
Weaving has now commenced and I’m loving how it’s coming out.
