Dear Lora. I’ve just stumbled upon your KZbin channel and have been engrossed for a good couple of hours now.😁 I am always delighted to find a teacher who shows me, not only a new skill or an improved version of it, but also how to be a better craftswoman. You are one such teacher. Your clear explanations, your patterns….it all makes wonderful sense. I see exactly where I’ve been going wrong with my rug attempts and am very excited to put all my new knowledge into practice. Greatly inspired by your enthusiasm and cheerful presentation. Many, many thanks to you. Meg 💐💐💐

I’ve watched many videos on making a rag rug and tried all those techniques and yours is the BEST! This is truly a no fail way to crochet a rag rug! I made my first rug following along with you and it turned out perfectly! Can’t thank you enough Lora.

[@RagstoRugsbyLora]

Barbara, thank you for sharing! I am sooooo happy the pattern has helped you .. means a LOT to me hearing that!

[@annnowak1512]

OMG, I am sooo glad I did not give on learning how to make a rag rug! I am not fabric art hobbiest because I tried for so long learning how to knit several years ago and just couldn't get the hang of it--felt very frustrated, bored, and soar (lol). Then earlier this summer I saw a project on a craft site to make a rag rug and thought maybe I could learn to do that. It took me 3 weeks to finish a complete disaster and hot mess because I don't like NOT finishing things no matter how bad they may turn out, haha. So I knew I needed to find more tutorial videos to give it ago again. Your video(s) were exactly what I needed! It took me 3 hours to rehearse/practice the first part of starting it but once I got going I completed round 9 last night and then finished round 10 this morning--AND I watched your video on how to do the scallop edges and was able to add that finishing touch. I can't believe I actually made a perfect (well, to me at least) round AND FLAT rug in less than 24 hours! You were right about your pattern and the way you taught it made so much more sense to me, and I learned about ALL the mistakes I had made and how to avoid if not all but most of them. My husband, who is a math teacher, kept telling me that on the disaster rug I had too much material (it was majorly curling and so on) and needed to probably cut some off and then resew (I can barely sew a button and do not know how to use a sewing machine) somehow the pie back together so it would look better and lay flat, or just redo it, LOL!! Thank you again, and I look forward to watching some of your other videos and starting on my next "perfect" rug. This first one I made I am giving to my mom since she (and my younger sister) is the expert on knitting and knew how frustrating fabric art was to me and can now see how I finally accomplished this monumental crafting feat!

[@RagstoRugsbyLora]

Thank you, THANK YOU!! for your kind words! You have absolutely brightened my day! Few things make me happier with Rags to Rugs than learning that others benefit from my videos! I set out years ago trying to come up with ways to teach more simply than written patterns. I'm dyslexic & written patterns are challenging for me to follow. (For that matter recipes & books too). Some think my method of teaching is odd at best! LOL So, for someone like yourself to have benefited from them AND completed her first PERFECT rug, I'm thrilled! Thank you for sharing! I hope you'll stay in touch!

Hi Lora, have been watching your videos multiple times (great tips & info!), completed one small round rug with scallops & am excited to start another. Have also bought an Amish knot needle & your "round card" from you. But your video instructions are so clear that I tried crochet for the first time and that's how I made my first rug under your tutelage! You mention you are using broadcloth and my experience with it is that it's generally a polyester & cotton fabric and pretty sturdy--sort of stiff compared to a very soft cotton. In my next rug I'm going to use scraps including cotton sheets which tend to be very soft. I have been thinking of stiffening the softest fabrics by lightly starching them so that they handle more like your broadcloth. Have you or anyone you've known ever starched soft fabric to make it less "floppy" in the construction/crocheting process?

[@RagstoRugsbyLora]

Hello!! Thank you for reaching out & for your kind remarks!! I'm excited for you!! There IS a product you can buy that helps to stiffen fabrics, but honestly I don't think you need it. (It's more for small fabric projects like ornaments & dolls etc). You might consider our fabric rolls!? They are 100% cotton & bias cut which makes them a dream to work with. Soft yet sturdy and no threads since they are bias cut. They are 2" wide rolls - 6 yards on each. I think as a beginner you should work with the bed sheets as you've mentioned. They are so awesome to work with & a benefit is you can pick up used sheets at your local Goodwill or Salvation Army stores for a couple dollars & help to keep undo waste out of our landfills. A set of queen sheets is nearly 12 yards of usable goods. And if you want a thicker rug, consider cutting the sheets a bit wider - 2 1/2" would be good! You'll get a thicker & "less floppy" rug & great "therapy on your feet!"!! Here's a link back to our website if you want to check out our fabric rolls!! >> ragstorugs-bylora.com/SHOP.php?category=72

Thank you so much for this video. I am definitely going to make this rug, it’s gorgeous. I’m hoping it works just as well using strips of fabric from old duvet covers and sheets.

[@galeg9839]

Great tutorial. How to I keep printed fabric side up when crocheting the rug?

[@RagstoRugsbyLora]

Thank you, Gale! I appreciate that! There are many different methods - most are a bit tedious in my opinion. Some press the fabric in half print side out, some serge their strips. I prefer to "fold as I go". I fold both sides in like bias tape as I'm crocheting. At first it may feel a bit awkward but with practice it goes very quickly! Promise! It sure makes you appreciate fabrics that are the same on both sides! Like solid broadcloths, yarn dyed flannels, homespun fabrics or batiks. They are my absolute favorites to crochet with! Thanks for reaching out! Merry Christmas to you!

Glad you enjoyed it! You are VERY welcome!

[@TheKaydie]

I appreciate you getting back to me and understand zabout cutting long strips rather then one continuous strip. My question now is how do I join the strips correctly? Do you have a video showing this? Thank you Judy

[@RagstoRugsbyLora]

You're very welcome Judy! We have an old (very grainy) video that I share share a link to. A new one is next in line to produce! We hope to have it on the channel within a week! In the meantime, hopefully this one will help you! Please stay in touch okay?! Here's that link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmbTf2mQlpieaZY
