I'm a disabled middle age woman who had to find a hobby or start climbing the walls. I decided my rugs wouldn't be those dark, dull colors you see so often with these rugs. I like the pastels and Springlike colors so much better.

I started making rag rugs to supplement my disability and to help with physical therapy. It really hurts my hands when I'm working with the rugs, but there's great satisfaction and forgetfulness of pain once the rug is done and I can see how beautiful it is.

These rugs are made the way our grandmothers used to make them. Each strip of fabric is hand cut, hand sewn and hand crocheted. So, there's a lot of work involved in each and every rug I make. Plus, the task of finding just the right combination of material and colors.

These rugs can be put in the washer but I would really recommend you line dry or lay flat to dry to preserve the rug. If you were to follow the advise given by grandma, you wouldn't put this rug in the washer at all, but would hand wash it.

Thank you for visiting my store and I hope to see you again real soon. Leave me some information about your store and I'll go take a look at it. If you have any suggestions, I'm always open to them.
