This denim country farmhouse rag rug has rustic charm and texture. It was handwoven on an antique barn loom in my home. This rug was made from repurposed blue jeans that were cut into strips and sewn together. The warp is cotton in blues and grays. The weft (fabric) is woven in shades of blue jeans.
This rug measures 25” wide x 39” long which includes a rolled hem. A hem wears much better than a fringe.
This rug will look great in any rustic, cottage, primitive or country farmhouse decor.
Reversible and washable
For best results shake out regularly and reverse. store Machine wash cool/gentle. Air dry flat. With proper care this rug will service you for many years.
I use the same process as our ancestors did to make my rugs. Worn clothing and linens are cut or torn into strips and sewn or linked together to make strands long enough to wrap around a shuttle for weaving. The warp or threads are measured and threaded through the reed and heddles singularly. After this process, the warp is wound onto the beam with even tension. The threads are then tied onto the cloth beam and the weaving can begin. I take pride in keeping this tradition alive.
You can feel good about purchasing a rug from Sleepy Owl Fiber Arts knowing that you are keeping fabric from the landfill.
