Rag Rugs a heritage craft
Rag rugs are a heritage craft, and can be found in these reconstructed historic buildings, as part of this amazing living museum.
I will be teaching traditional rag rug making using old fashioned hand tools.
Students will make a small cushion or textile art piece, and learn hooky, proggy and braiding.
Bring any pre loved fine knits you'd like to recycle. Lunch in the museum cafe or bring your own.
