I've made these rugs before and kept my wrapped cord in a clothes basket. So i could spin the basket every so often to keep the cord from wrapping up on its self.

I haven’t made a rug, but did make 4 placemats, each a different color way. Made them about 7 yrs ago. Don’t forget to clean the machine every few hours, you do get lots of fabric lint.

I made one several years ago with 2 1\2" batting folded inside and I would never make another one. Until I saw this one, now I want to try it again with the cord.

YES!!!! I agree - this is much easier and cost effective than using the batting.

This rug is amazing. It reminds me of one’s that my great grandmother along with my grandmother and her sisters made. I have watched this video 3 times now trying to wrap my brain around it. When I initially saw it, before I watched the video, I was thinking it was something that I could do while riding on long road trips. I have one of those battery powered singer handheld machines. Still a maybe. I’m not ruling it out but honestly wow. So many hours of your time went into this. I think that makes it that much more beautiful.

I made a rag rug many years ago using plaited strips. The edges were turned to the centre and folded the same as bias binding. It was then hand stitched. The plaiting was quite relaxing but needed to be tight. Rob, I can hear my shoulders complaining 😅 working that weight through the machine.

I watched a tutorial for rugs or bowls, and the person used very fine needle nose pliers to start her center and then as she got the circle as big as she wanted it, she put pins in on four sides to hold it all together so she could start sewing in the center. Looks like it worked perfectly and I'm going to try it.

Thanks, Rob. I did make a rug, but now with the tips you've given, I will make another and have knowledge to avoid issues in the first one.

Absolutely AWESOME rug, Rob!!!!!! I appreciate your thoroughness... my notes show you said use POLYESTER thread, and a DENIM style needle, which makes sense since they're both strong. I'd like to see how you make a RECTANGLE shaped one, that's what I want to make :) THANKS for the video, I'll watch it for a 3rd time and see if I missed anything. BLESSINGS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY, and HAPPY FALL!! P.S.: I just LOVE your wedding ring!!!

Oh way way Way better than the handsewn method from Girl Scouts 48yrs ago. I think that “rug” got to maybe 6” in diameter (it fit great in my dollhouse LOL). I don’t have a lot of scraps yet and am hoping to keep that to a minimum. This could be an excellent way to proactively manage them.

I love this rug so much!! I've made a smaller one with batting inside. I wonder how much different it would feel. Mine feels so cool and soft to my feet! While you were splicing the cord, I thought you would zigzag the ends...would that not be easier than straight stitch?

I’ve found that sewing through massive amounts of cotton cording is very rough on domestic sewing machines, you might wind up with a rug but you might crack a gear and destroy your domestic machine. Lesson I learned the hard way a few years ago.

Wonderful instructions. Do you think that we could connect the ends together with painters tape then after sewing - peal off the tape?

I will admit that my concern with the sewing instead of say crochet, is how well the thread will hold up with for traffic and cleaning, etc.

It maybe easier to start the center by hand stitching until the starting circle is a few inches wide... just saying ♡♡♡

Good project. I think you are wrapping too much fabric around your cord. It just needs to be wrapped around half the width of your folded fabric strips. The start is good, but the next wrap would be at a 45-degree angle, to hit each previous wrap in the middle of that wrap. The other pointers you show is good, I had to order more clips to help me more. I am collecting fabric to make my next rug. Thanks

Ahhh..... a flat fabric bowl! Same technique except the sewing is flat and the bowls require angled seams...... The joins would be stronger if they were cut at an angle and zigzagged together. The end would be less obvious if the rope was cut at an angle
