It’s contagious!

Hello Jenni,

I just wanted to thank you for introducing me to the wonderful craft of rag rugging!

I watched you demonstrate at Bristol Wool Fair and was inspired! I bought a tool and your excellent book ‘More Rag Rugs’ and away I went.

First I tried a roundel cushion using cotton fabrics. With more confidence I decided to make a traditional wool rug as a Christmas present for friends who have a canal boat.

My next project was fairly ambitious, a blue-tit in mixed fabrics. I was pleased with the result and it was a gift well received by a true bird lover!

Thanks again for de-mystifying the craft and encouraging me to have a go!

Best wishes for the year ahead,

Mo Brown

Lovely work Mo. You have achieved plenty of definition on the blue tit rug…not easy with that technique. Hope to see you again and keep on progging!

About jenniragrugs

I started rag rug making as a hobby and got hooked on sharing the craft at workshops and creative breaks. My first book Rag Rug Making was reprinted 4 times and is sold out but I have signed copies of my second book: More Rag Rugs & Recycled Textile Projects and my new how-to book was published in 2021: An Introduction to RAG RUGS - Creative Recycling (Pen & Sword Books).
