Use Up Excess Fabric in a Charming Braided Rag Rug

It’s Great for Large Scraps and Yardage!
Do you have a lot of fabric you’ll probably never use or too many large leftover pieces? This charming braided rug is a great way to make a big dent in your stash.
The rug is simple to make and great in any color theme. Plus, it can be made in any size (round or rectangular!).
Tear fabric strips, braid them and then sew them down to a fabric base. Easy, and something to work on a bit at a time.
Caroline refers to an article by Merissa from Little House Living for a great way to combine strips. Learn more here.
A second article, by Pamela from When in Roam Life, explains how to attach the braids to a foundation fabric. Learn more here.
