Wagon Wheel Rug Making

[@Indusxstan]

It is a a truly beautiful creation. I hope there are always people to keep the craft alive, especially since it is so eco-friendly too!

[@cynthiaesquibel3191]

Beautiful rugs! I've never heard of or seen these before. So glad to hear a niece wants to learn and carry on the tradition..too many home arts have been lost in time.

[@Kittenvilleranch]

I found this video: because the community nearby is having Pioneer Days in a couple of weeks. I have been hording old clothes for over a year, been looking for inspiration, and catching grieve from my wife. This video is definitely what I have been waiting for. Thank You!!!

[@kathywinter7793]

At craft shows around here there were people doing wagon wheel rugs. They had the wheel connected to a piece of wood and a stand. It spun around when needed. Always wanted to do it.

[@tonmarinaxxzz]

This is 10 years old. I wonder if she has passed this wonderful art to someone else. I wonder if she and her husband are still alive as they seem to be fairly old in this video. What absolutely beautiful creations. It would be ashame if this art was lost.

[@lin-ef7se]

Thank you so! I have two old wagon wheels, time and a new endeavor to begin. God bless you.

[@festibetts8351]

Thank you for sharing, I am teaching myself and my boyfriend kids now to hand craft and pick up a second income for myself :)

[@sandietaf3735]

Nice rug!

[@akualezlihope7301]

Instructive and inspiring! Thank you for sharing!

[@annettefodge9524]

I WOULD LOVE TO LEARN HOW TO DO THIS. SUCH AN AWESOME TRADITION TO PASS DOWN.

[@QuiltingConnieB]

Great video what Beautiful work thanks for sharing God Bless

[@hellishtimber]

gorgeous !

[@ColleenSikel]

I make 8 spoke wagon wheel rugs. My mother taught me and her mother taught her. My grandmother used to make them to sell at her garage sales for 4 dollars a piece just to make a little extra money.

[@SpiritBear12]

Only 4 dollars a piece? Oh that poor woman was under cutting herself. They would be worth so much more than that. So much work, time and materials that goes into making any hand made rug, all of that effort is worth far more than 4 dollars a piece. I think it's nice you have carried on the tradition. I have never seen a wagon wheel rug until now.

[@ColleenSikel]

I know depending on how particular I get my rugs can take up the 40 Hours to complete and can take up to 100 yards of fabric depending on the tightness of the weave. I can hardly imagine selling them for so little. So much effort for so little a reward. Though I do find it very meditative so maybe for her it was less financial and more personal.

[@kimberlyhuhn5827]

I saw Francoise Ouimet's work at Old Songs about 28 years ago. I was smitten and went home and wrote down all of the instruction she talked about. I still have those instructions and still dream of finding my wagon wheel to nail in and create a rug! Gosh...what on earth am I waiting for? I have ebay now to find a wagon wheel!

[@nancysims7106]

you can use a hula hoop too

[@wendijackson8844]

I've been using a hula hoop But the 3 rugs I've done look nothing like this. I'd gladly pay for a copy of the instructions.

[@jeannemolamphy29]

I would love to carry on this tradition!!! I weave and teach at our local art center. Is there anyway I can learn this technique? I would be honored to pass this art along in my part of the country.

[@sandrasolaligue-perez3606]

Same here! Creating hepls the mind to heal! I'd love to learn the technique! ❤❤❤

[@rosariobarroso4956]

Lindos trabalhos! Linda Senhora!

[@debbiewidner5676]

Neat to learn about and see!

[@jjackson2655]

Thank you for sharing this video and allowing us to learn from you. Is there a video from start to finish or how to do the patterning? I would love to teach this lost art this fall at our retreat. How do I get more info from you?

[@lesleyevans6691]

Wonderful skill, just need to find a wagon wheel .

[@teresacrowder5483]

I would simply love to learn to do this. I love the pattern and colors you have used. Would you consider making an instructional video to help others learn this art and pass it on. There are so many arts have been lost that it is a shame. My grandmother taught me a lot and I am passing it on to my sons. Thank you so much.

[@sharonb3871]

This is a great "history lesson". But, I would really love to know how to make these for myself. Those rugs are beautiful and unique. And, they would be fabulous gifts to learn to make. Do you have a tutorial?

[@christieallen3916]

I love this rug making technique.. I wonder if you can make this with plarn (plastic yarn) would be great for the homeless to have. I think to might be easier to do then crocheting the plarn which I am doing now

[@SpiritBear12]

How do you prepare your plarn? Do you spin one or maybe two plies together? Or do you just cut it out in long strips and crochet it like that?

[@christieallen3916]

SpiritBear12 I cut it into loops and knot them together

[@SpiritBear12]

Christie Allen But you're not spinning the plarn to make a twisted yarn? Are you crocheting it as it is in flat ribbons?

[@ROSEISDAHLTROYEGREEN]

fantastic...

[@refeshouria8389]

bonjour merci pour ce travail trés trés jolie

[@DonLemont]

any one know where i can learn how to make these would love to learn but cant even guess how to add more spokes as i go? any help is welcome thanks.

[@Artfromsketchbook]

great job.thank you sooooooo much.love you :)

[@Вотятакаяиесть]

Интересная техника круглого коврика на обруче. Но хочется какой-то мастер-класс как добавлять нити.

[@oasquadfamily2896]

How far apart are the nails on the wagon wheel loom

[@Sabinefundel]

It would be sad, if the art gets lost at all.... my Suggestion is, that this lovely Lady could hold Courses for People who are interested to learn it...

[@ruthrutherford4317]

A lady in our church makes these using an iron ring a blacksmith welded for her.

[@z.mirandamerced7243]

beautifull is a small word for your art. can you teach it in a video. i would like to learn it.

[@SaysVeronica]

There is a good clear instruction here: www.yrstation.com/pdf/Wagon%20Wheel%20Rug%20directions.pdf

[@onyubo]

The link is broken, or expired. Thank you though for sharing.

[@rosariobarroso4956]

Penso eu, que estando a roda ou suporte em posição inclinada pouparia a coluna dela evitando futuras dores.

[@nasheemashahbazi6055]

Amazing! Can there by an instructional tutorial for us to learn step by step please. Thank you so much! !!

[@carolkline2368]

I would love to have your address. I have begun to make rugs and a lot of questions. also You look exactly like one of my church ladies, now gone but it has stirred my curiousity.

[@suzannejones9402]

Is there a book or pattern for this rug

[@Katmamik]

Why don't you have your husband put the wagon wheel on a stand that will enable the wheel to tilt until you get to the edge then tilt it back down? Might be a lot easier on the back.

[@SpiritBear12]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@anndillard3553]

Paper crafts

[@sylviavega-ortiz3006]

Not good for the shape of the rug as gravity will shift the centerpoint.

[@judyvance1556]

Is the “s” supposed to be silent?

[@sefox]

yes Rug making is an art. from drawing it to making it. Do not let this art to be lost support www.RugAddiction.com
