This is a handmade shag rug, vibrant and all set to make a statement. I use only vintage and recycled fabrics, which keeps it out of the landfill.
Entirely hand made, this is a version of a proddy or prodded rug, a traditional British Isles floor covering that has been updated using vintage cotton fabric. Red with white stripes, blue duck and snowy, white cotton.
The fabric is ripped into strips and then individually pulled through a burlap base to create a shag-like rug, a labor intensive process. I whip stitched a backing of shiny gold sateen to protect the fabric and give it a finished look.
By cutting, rather than ripping the strips, the fabric frays slightly, which gives this already fluffy hand crafted rug an even more feathery fluffy inviting look. Feels great on fee too.
Pets LOVE shag rugs, so this would be a perfect gift for your four footed friends!
