How To Sew A Simple Rug

Hello! Today I'm going to be showing you all how to sew a simple rug. I don't know about you guys but personally when I came up with the idea to make my own rug I was a little scared. I don't why but the idea of making my own rug just seemed a little frightening. Anyways, it's actually super easy!

Here's what you need...

• A fabric of your choice(amount will depend on the dimensions of your rug. I got mine out of a scrap bin at A.C.Moore)
• Thread
• Scissors(Fabric scissors are much easier to cut with than regular scissors!)
• A sewing needle or sewing machine

First you need to figure out how big you want your rug to be. Here's a graphic of the dimensions I used. 

You can make yours a rectangle, square, triangle, or whatever. It's about what you want it to look like. 

Then we're just going to hem all of the sides. 

I didn't want my thread to be visible so I made sure to choose a matching one. Here's what my hem looked like. If you look closely you can see my thread.

After hemming I was done! All did was put it in place. If you'd like your rug to have more of a cushion to it you can buy a rug pad to put under it. I personally didn't bother but it's up to you. Here's how mine turned out. I know my picture isn't the greatest, but I lost my good camera so I took it with an old one. Sorry guys.

I hope you guys enjoyed this tutorial. Let me know in the comments what you thought and what you think I should try next. Hope you all have a fantastic day.
Love,
