Hi I am new to the sisterhood as of 3/6//12. I am from Indiana and just learning my way around the blogs so bear with me while I am learning.LOL I live in the county and enjoy every minute of it. I enjoy gardening, sewing, knitting, weaving rag rugs, and spending time with family. Looking forward to all the new things to come. Roxanna

Hi Roxanna!

Welcome from PA! I hope you enjoy it here as much as I do. What do you use to weave your rugs? I have a table top rigid heddle loop, and was thinking of trying to do a rag rug on it, but I was told I couldn't beat it hard enough - does that make sense to you?

Big farm girl hugs!

Luanne

Welcome Roxanna from Chandler, OK. I've been here for about 3 or 4 months; I'm still getting used to how things are done. Don't be afraid to ask questions; somebody always answers. Have fun looking around.

you can use about anything, it is a great way to remake old items into something new. My rugs are 27 inches wide and whatever length that is needed. Old socks make great bathroom rugs! Roxanna

Welcome Roxanna! You'll love it here. I'd love to see a photo of a rag rug you have woven. I've made a couple of braided ones and they are so much work but last forever! The gals here are the BEST!
