@@SaraH-zt1ek absofreakinglutely we do! I'm collecting things right now for a) t-shirt yarn, and b) plastic recycling (like Brothers Make on here are doing), and as I always do, watching for yarn to repurpose for my crocheting. Plus, I'm finally learning to sew, after decades, and using the thrift store near the doctor's office I go to every month for cheap materials! Keeps lots out of the landfill that way!
Beautiful! Its time consuming task though! I think, we need to give such not in use clothes to some unemployed people so that they can follow the process and make something for their living by selling the same.
These rugs can be a wonderful memorial for someone too. My great great grandma made 2 area rugs out of her husband’s clothes after he passed. She had two children so each got one. They’ve been passed down and fast forward to today, I have a beautiful rug that reminds me of a long gone loved one. It is my favorite possession.
Я сшила подушку в стиле печворк из маминых красивых футболок, которые она носила перед своим уходом. Теперь её внуки смотрят на них. Это малое что мы можем сделать, чтоб не выкидывать любимые вещи наших ушедших родственников.
Thanks you for ENG version. I've watched original videos but having your audio explanation does help. And I have lots of clothes that aren't able to donate that I want to recycle.
That is the most beautiful rug I have ever seen made from recycled clothing! I've always thought I'd have to go out to buy more thrift store tshirts to complete such a rug because I didn't know you could use different fabrics. Glad you made this video to show it's possible to use various fabrics. I'm impressed you even incorporated a knitted sweater and a quilted fabric in the rug.
Incredible. Your skill and method creates a beautiful rug. You put much time and effort into your work. Thank you for demonstrating the exact steps to fold old fabrics and clothes into strips for neat weaving.
Thank you so much for sharing this, it is gorgeous. I can see that extra step of ironing and sewing the strips makes this recycled rug look so pretty. I have wanted to try this recycle project but your process has really helped me to see the steps. Thank you
Love that rug !! Great video !! I mostly make mine out of fabric strips that are leftover from quilting, old bedsheets, tablecloth and things like that. Your method is really new to me. I'm going to give it a try this winter.
Beautiful end result, if you have a bunch of clothes to repurpose. I recently made a rug for the floor in front of the toilet, using one pair of my husband’s worn out work jeans. I cut the pant legs into strips about 4 cm wide, sewed them together lengthwise. Hemmed all the edges and then put it through the wash a couple times. The rough edges with the fray exposed face up to catch the dirt and cushion your feet and when it gets dirty you just toss in the wash. It was a quick, one afternoon project and kept that material out of the landfill! Very easy & satisfying.
Fabulous 😍🤩 in our family tradition, we would make rugs and blankets the same way but using yarn and stretching t-shirt fabric of different colours. We don't make bias ribbons, we just cut the strips, stretch them to make them rounded and then use them directly to weave the item ...thank you so much for sharing ❤
I just watched your making of rag rug.. Green is my fav color! I’m impressed with your craft woman ship in planning & construction. And I love your neat & tight hand sticking- just beautiful
It was wonderful watching this video but I wanted to see specifically how the weaving got done. And was pretty disappointed that I couldn't watch the weaving happening
My first reaction when seeing the rug: I WANNA DO THAT!! After watching the video: that's a lot of work, not so sure about that now! It's beautiful though and all that extra work really paid off. It looks very neat, not to mention beautiful!
Thank you for this , it’s an amazing use of old clothing and brilliant idea to use handing rail as a loom, genius. ❤ I would use pipe cleaners to thread the ends through the rug, and use slip knot to tie the foundation strings so it’s easier to untie them. My late grandma used to make these and she used any type of fabric to make rugs and throws.
I've been watching upcycling videos today and your rug has to be the prettiest I've seen using old clothing strips. I haven't watched the video yet, but will tomorrow AM. The colors and professionally done finish caught my eye right before shutting down for the night. I'd given up the idea of using my old clothes fabrics for such a project until I saw your beautiful green rug. Now I want to know how to do it in such a beautiful way. Thanks for sharing!
It’s just amazing and Really admire your Craft . So much patience and and the work is just perfect and A great inspiration . Your English Commentary was an added bonus.
I made a scrap rug on somebody else's loom once, and it was so fun (and challenging) to make and design! Yours turned out lovely, but I really want to know more about the loom you used. (It almost looks like a clothing rack, but it must be pretty sturdy, I imagine!)
I dunno if this is something that has already been said, but I love your accent. The way you say certain words, like bias and iron, feel just beautiful to my ears, and makes me want to just stop and listen for longer. You would be amazing as an audiobook narrator.
Натрапила на ваш блог і зраділа, коли побачила Coat Kyiv, і прочитала, що ви - з України:)Хочу спробувати зробити собі такий коврик. Дякую за інструкцію!)
I have One of these in my homes ,i am for the re use of old clothes .This is so beautifull and inspiring because there places where people dont even have something to sleep on .God Bless you precious soul beautifull woman Jesus Loves us and Saves .🖐️💪♥️🕊️🗺️
❤Well done!!❤ Cheers to a woman unafraid to tackle a complicated and laborious desired project. I’ve been thinking of making a rug of used clothing, with Crochet. This showed me an option. I like choices. Thanks for sharing. 😊From, Celeste in the PNW, US.
Wow this is beautiful- thank you for sharing the process. Very inspiring. I have clothes that aren’t really good enough to donate so this is a great option to think about
My paternal grandmother made braided rugs using the off cuts from the family's woolen mill mixed with worn out farm clothes so I can appreciate the time and effort put into this. It's beautiful. Did you use upholstery needles in your machine?
this is awesome, i was thinking to make one as well, my only issues is, how does one wash suich a rug ? I think is stiff enough and can't be put ina washing machine, or ?
Too good, unique , amazing.. useful and acording to fashion and also cast free project. Thanks for sharing this wonderful and excellent effort with us.❤❤❤❤❤
@Elaine Ogren • You may want to rewatch, but I believe she used the yarn from the sweater her mother knit for her. It also looked like she used a hitch to attach each bundle of 3 rather than doing a continuous warp.
Geridönüşüm muhteşem!.😊kullanilmayan kiyafetlerin degerlendilip başka birşeye dönüşmesi harika!.ve kumaşlari katladginiz aparat çok iyi nereden bula bilirimm.
I'm seeing this video for the first time and love it! I want to know more about the weaving loom you're using. I've made different ones using cardboard, picture frames and wood strips. I have even thought about using a free standing clothes rack. Please tell us more.
I'm trying to make straps but it would really be a help if I could know the metal thing you're using to slip the prices of fabric through that automatically folds it for you! ❤ I love the blue rug you made and this one!
Let's summarize. For this rug I used: 4 knitted jumpers, 3 t-shirts, 2 sport pants, viscose shirt and slip dress, off-shoulder cotton top, tights, cotton skirt, wool skirt, quilted scarf. Let's save our planet together. 🌍
Ý tưởng mình nghĩ từ lâu, tiếc không có máy.. chị kiên trì giỏi lắm ❤
We have too many things that can be recycled filling up our landfills.

Such beautiful work. The colour combination is exquisite. I think the rug belongs on the wall, as a piece of art. Much love from Ireland..

Это вешалка для одежды
Same! I paused and zoomed in because I was so impressed. A great idea!
same
I was impressed with this too, please do a video showing what you use and how you tie it off before weaving. Thanks!
The quality of patience you have to create such creations is amazing
I’m very appreciative of the time and effort that you took to show us how you make this beautiful work of art. Thank you ever so much!! ❤
I absolutely love that binding!! I have made many "rag rugs" but I am never happy with the finished design. I love this.

It's beautiful though and all that extra work really paid off. It looks very neat, not to mention beautiful!
i thought the same, but perhaps one could start by making something smaller like a couple of place mats or a pot holder instead!
That turned out beautiful…love the colors

By the way great work😍
It’s just amazing and Really admire your Craft . So much patience and and the work is just perfect and A great inspiration . Your English Commentary was an added bonus.

This took a lot of work , but it came out beautiful !!!
That looks stunning. How much work! And I like that you used the hanger as a base for your weaving. What a fantastic rug.

It looks identical to my "RIGGA" clothing rack from IKEA.
@@LachRustui not bad! thanks!
@@LachRustui that's what I thought also!
Very nice. I can't wait to try this. We are currently doing a deep clean of the closets so there will be lots of fabric options.😁
I’m all about giving old things new life. Recycling is the best. You are so talented. This is amazing. I just love it! Great job. So beautiful.❤😊

Best rug tutorial ever! Both understendable and calming. An the rug is a real art for everyday. Thank You for creating and sharing❤
So beautiful and such neat and tidy work! Perfect!!
VERY nicely done.. your little details make it look just right.

Too good, unique , amazing.. useful and acording to fashion and also cast free project. Thanks for sharing this wonderful and excellent effort with us.❤❤❤❤❤
I love the colors. Beautiful work 🌺What kind of weaving string did you use and how did you wrap the string on the metal bars on your clothes rack?
@Elaine Ogren • You may want to rewatch, but I believe she used the yarn from the sweater her mother knit for her. It also looked like she used a hitch to attach each bundle of 3 rather than doing a continuous warp.
❤Very beautiful hand made rug your work is very neatly explained thanks for sharing. 👍
Ficou lindo. É trabalhoso, mas o resultado final é espetacular.
This is great, what are the warp threads made of and could you use string ?
Stunningly beautiful rug. Great work.
Beautiful!! I usually make mine out of hemp sacks and wool. Like a tapestry. I must try this as well. 🥰
Wonderful. How many hours take to do this rug
Geridönüşüm muhteşem!.😊kullanilmayan kiyafetlerin degerlendilip başka birşeye dönüşmesi harika!.ve kumaşlari katladginiz aparat çok iyi nereden bula bilirimm.

I'm trying to make straps but it would really be a help if I could know the metal thing you're using to slip the prices of fabric through that automatically folds it for you! ❤ I love the blue rug you made and this one!
The rug is so beautiful! Masterful work.
Great job! Much as I don’t really like green all that much, this really is lovely.
Beautiful rug. I've been wanting to try since a long time. Thanks for sharing
I Love it! The pretty colours and your mothers nitting. ❤
Beautiful rug! Great idea and execution! Is it possible to wash such a rug in a washing machine?
Beautiful rug!! You have put in a lot of very hard work.
Thank you! 😊
OMG The method is genius!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I LOVE IT!! Will definitely try this one day soon. Thank you for the video 🤗
All the old clothes looking new but the your work is awesome
Could also be a blanket
I love this!!! If you make it a little bigger it would be perfect for a picnic blanket/rug!!
That is a beautiful rug, well made too! Where do you get the metal tool to fold the strips?
So mush work but so cool project and the coloring is beautiful. That’s bias tape folding machine? Is so clever… what an invention
This is wonderful. What you do is simply unique, I caught fire with your creativity. But I don't know how to make such a machine 😢🎉🎉🎉
Lots and lots of hard work.
Wonderful
God bless you..
Keep sharing..
My favorite colors…so pretty!
This is a Titanic work! Bravo!
Thanks for sharing your process. What a work of art! :)
Смотрится красиво, хорошее сочетание цветов и аккуратное исполнение.
What is that tool you used for supporting the folds of fabric while you were ironing
