Traditional rag rug workshop- Sat 21st Nov 1.30-3.30

Traditional Rag Rugging Workshop Step back in time and learn the wonderful craft of traditional rag rugging – a skill once used by working-class families to create warm, durable rugs from recycled fabrics. After visiting the historic craft demonstrations at Beamish at Christmas and learning the skills, I was inspired to bring this beautiful, sustainable tradition to life in this hands-on workshop. Using fully recycled fabrics and materials, you’ll learn the traditional rag rugging techniques and begin creating your very own rug. As a full rug takes time to complete, during the session you will: • Learn the traditional rag rugging method • Create and complete a section of your own rug • Gain the skills and confidence to finish the rug at home Rag rugs are wonderfully warm, cosy and sustainable, making them a perfect addition to any home. ☕ Free tea and coffee will be provided so you can relax and enjoy the crafting experience. Date: Sat 21st Nov Session Times: • 1:30-3.30pm Location: 35A Richardshaw Lane Pudsey LS28 7NB Come along, learn a traditional skill, and start creating something beautiful from recycled materials.
