She had us kids take about three strips of sheet & baste/sew several of these strips together. After we had gotten the strips sewn she had us braid them together. When we finished braiding all the sheet material we baste stitched once again starting w/a braided strip and working it around the braided strip we started with. When I had finished w/my braided rug I was really pleased. Must have been because here it is 30 some years later & I still remember how we made those awesome rag rugs. Hope this helps you out some I realize it isn't crochet but it is a rag rug made out of bedding sheets. Sincerely, evlevo85 Report Spam or Abuse RE: Crocheted Rug from Strips of Sheets?
