Recycled T Shirt/ Fabric Rug

Today I will be showing you how to make a recycled fabric rug.

You will need:
Sewing Machine
Fabric

First you will cut your fabric into approximately 2in wide 5in long. (The messier you want it to look make strips different lengths and widths)


Second you will need to cut a piece of fabric into the size and shape you want your rug to become. Then Hem it so there is no rough edges.

 
Then start sewing in lines. (I alternated fabric like doing a checker board)

 
 Sorry the picture is kind of bad.
Keep sewing like this until you reach the end. And your finished product should look something like this:


 

Here is a closer picture:



Let me know how you like it.
