Rag Rug Set Cushions Instructions
- 1
Use natural fabric, such as cotton or wool.fabric image by Leonid Nyshko from Fotolia.com
Cut strips of scrap cotton or wool fabric. Each strip should be around two inches in width and any length. Collect all of the strips together, and sew them together, end to end. After you have created a strip that is five feet in length, set it aside. Repeat this process until you have created three strips of fabric, each five feet long. - 2
Use a strong thread that will not break from use.thread image by studio vision1 from Fotolia.com
Braid the strips of fabric together, making a five-foot-long braid. Curl the braid around in a spiral until the entire braid has been wrapped onto itself. Sew the braided spiral together with a strong thread. To do this, start at the center of the spiral, and sew the braid onto the curve of the braid next to it. Continue sewing it together until you reach the end of the spiral. Knot the thread, and cut off the excess with scissors. - 3
