It looks pretty cool when you are finished. Some people knot them on top (looping them through the bottom and criss cross and under on the face so that the tails dangle on top and make the rug fluffy) Whilst others don't knot the fabric strips at all just loop them through, but then wash it in really hot water after and the hessian shrinks, tightening around all the fabric strips.. ( I knotted them) in case you are wondering. This is an old technique to make a rug or mat from 19th Century in Tasmania, Australia and no doubt was used elsewhere too.Forestwoodfolkarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11037162477932342666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8767368008487835849.post-90505049970415268392011-08-04T19:10:02.614-04:002011-08-04T19:10:02.614-04:00ah! what a great idea! endless possibilities!
