Learn how to make a rag rug in this workshop with artist Petra Hilsen.

This ancient craft enables us to use worn out clothes, bedsheets, tablecloths etc. Instead old and used textiles ending up in landfill they are getting a new life.

You will learn: how to prepare strips, how to connect strips, how to make patterns, starting and braiding the rag rug and finishing of the rug.

Cost $95 per person.

What to bring:

Woven material in colours you would like to work with, from old clothing, bedclothes, tablecloths etc, (no stretchy fabric), a pair of scissors, a crochet hook size 4, a clip board or a bulldog clip and a sturdy magazine.

There will be a short lunch break - please bring your own water bottle and lunch. Tea and coffee provided
