Rag Rug Making

Rag Rug Making
📍 The Tinkerage, Dunmore
🗓️ Saturday 25 October 2025
🕙 10am – 3pm
🧶 Teacher: Jody Hezemans

Join us for a relaxed and creative day learning the art of toothbrush (Amish) rag rug making — a beautiful, practical way to breathe new life into old sheets or quilt covers!

In this hands-on workshop, local maker Jody Hezemans will guide you through the process of turning pre-loved fabric into a cosy bathmat, placemat, or even a pet bed. It’s a great way to learn traditional techniques while reducing textile waste.

• Fabric scissors

• Old sheets, doona covers, or cotton cloth you'd like to recycle

👟 Safety note:
Enclosed protective shoes must be worn at The Tinkerage.
