Rag rugs

To prove that other craft experiences are available, Mary has been in touch:

I will be running a couple of funky 'Rag Rug' workshops at Pat-a Cake Cafe, 358 Brockley Rd opposite Crofton Pk Station, on 28th February 11-1pm and 4-6pm (£30 per person)

This two hour workshop introduces you to the fascinating and satisfying craft of rag rugs, showing you a simple technique which you can use to make beautiful pieces which express your creativity as well as making something unique and useful.

The simplicity of the technique allows you to focus on the design, colour and fun aspects of your piece, and all sorts of materials can be used ranging from wool, lurex, velvet to plastic bags. In this workshop we will learn the skills to make a 'proddy' rug using mostly wool on a hessian backing. All tools and materials are provided, the inspiration and creativity are yours.
