We stock a range of rag rug making tools and accessories. This centuries old craft is fascinating and enjoyable, and can be very low cost too, as materials can be any fabrics including jumble sale finds, and such things as plastic bags and crisp packets.
Each tool comes with full instructions, plus we stock Rag Rug Making by John Corey which is a delightful book giving history, instructions and pictures of rugs.
We recommend the Diane Dorward's Crafters Rule for both cutting the fabric and marking out designs. Diane Dorward's Crafters Rule comes with complete instructions which include measurements and directions to makea Christmas tree wall hanging out of plastic bags.
